He said: “If there’s anybody who reaped most from PDP’s evil, it is the APC and they know what they campaigned on were pure lies. They know it.

“Their government is a creation of evil and shame, because it was fertilized by the PDP. The APC government is our daughter because the PDP made them. Minus the PDP, there would be no APC.”

Lamido said the fight against corruption should not be selective.

He said: “If you are with the APC, Buhari will clean you and that’s why all people from the PDP who went to the APC are very clean now.
