“PDP founding fathers weeping in their graves” – Bode George

Must read

Elder statesman and former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has raised concerns about the future of Nigeria’s main opposition party, saying the founding fathers of the party are weeping in their graves.

Speaking at a press conference in Lagos to mark his 79th birthday, George lamented the state of the party, stating that its founding fathers would be “crying in their graves” over its current condition.

He urged PDP elders to unite and address the growing internal crisis, which he believes threatens the party’s chances of unseating the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections.

“As a loyal party man who has stood with the PDP since its inception, I feel compelled to speak out,” George said. “All is not well with our party. In fact, our party is derailing.”

He highlighted how internal disloyalty and unresolved issues have compounded the party’s problems, which in turn reflect negatively on Nigeria’s socio-economic situation.

“I am raising the alarm today that our party is at the precipice of a dangerous looming crisis if pending critical party issues are not urgently addressed,” George warned.

The elder statesman emphasized that the upcoming PDP National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on November 28 in Abuja presents an opportunity to chart a new course and tackle the challenges facing the party.

“If the PDP must rescue Nigerians from the vicious grip of the APC in 2027, resolving these issues must be a top priority during the NEC meeting,” he concluded.
