Bode George, a well-known leader in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has said that he would not support Atiku Abubakar as his party’s nominee for president in the upcoming election unless the problem of inclusion in the party is resolved.
On Tuesday morning, George revealed this while participating in the Arise Television Morning Show programme.
Remember that he had backed the demand that Iyorchia Ayu resign from his role as the party’s National Chairman, arguing that the party’s continuing turmoil may lead to its defeat in the 2023 presidential race.
“Until this party returns to the founding fathers’ principles of unity, with equity, fairness and justice being the pedestal for any political decision taken in this party, and ensuring broad-mindedness to accommodate the concerns of all zones in this country, PDP becomes vulnerable to disaster in the 2023 elections,” he had said.
The PDP leader reiterated his former position and declared that unless the problem of inclusion in the party is resolved, he would not support Atiku in the upcoming election.
“I will not vote for the presidential candidate of our party. Until the issue of inclusivity is addressed. Let them sit down, and think over it. It is not negotiable; every Nigerian is important for this election.”
