An attempt by some members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to reconcile a former deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Bode George, and the president-elect, Bola Tinubu has has failed.

This was after some members of the Governance Advisory Council in Lagos State moved to get George to visit Tinubu in efforts to reconcile both men.

George a prominent Lagos State politician and former military governor has always expressed opposition to Tinubu even as governor of the state.

George who spoke on Sunday during the visit, gave reasons behind his refusal to reconcile with the president-elect, even as the group urged him to support and collaborate with Tinubu as he assumes office on May 29.

The head of the Governance Advisory Council in Lagos State, Tajudeen Olusi, was among the members of the APC delegation, which was led by Retired Justice Isola Olorunmibe.

George, a fervent opponent of President-elect Bola Tinubu, claimed that he was unable to refuse their request for a meeting since he respected Olorunmibe.


He said, “They were led by Papa Olorunmibe, a 94-year-old man. In Yoruba land, such a man cannot say he wants to come to my house and I will say no. It’s not done in my culture. There were other elders from the PDP.”

George said he, however, turned down the request to visit Tinubu, saying he couldn’t do such because his party was in court challenging the President-elect’s victory at the February 18 presidential election.

He said, “First of all, they came to apologise for whatever they had done in the past, and I said I have moved on and have nothing against his person. We may disagree on policies but we must not be disagreeable.

“Secondly, they wanted me to pay him a courtesy call. I was like, what are you talking about? I am the man representing South-West in the national confines of our party and I’m a life BoT member. So, how do I add that together? We are still in court, how do I now say I want to go and greet him? Greet him for what? What will my party and my people think about me?

“Once we finish at the court, then we’ll know what to do. The PDP members and I present were very clear in our mind that going to him now will be a bit suicidal. I’m still an irridentist PDP man.”

He should go on exile because someone cheated the system, bribed INEC chairman to win.

Hmm... Reno was right. Tinubu really need to be studied. This man is just too unique. God, thank you for blessing Nigeria with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Since Biden hasn't congratulated agbado, they want Bode to congratulate.

Tha k God he didn't accept. Before they will spin it and say PDP has accepted Tinubu and pulled out of court.

Mtchew..

Una go dey alright las las..

These over zealous people. Who is interested in Bode George? Do you think Tinubu cares about what he thinks or doesn't think? Please stop making that ex-convict important.
I am waiting for him to go on exile after Tinubu has been sworn in.

Pa Bode George can't simply hide his shame that Tinubu became the President of Nigeria in his lifetime despite all his bitterness towards the man, while he keeps licking his wound, Asiwaju will occupy the highest position of the country for 8years.
Bode George is talking about representing PDP in court, meanwhile he worked against his party at both the state and federal elections, he supported both GRV and Peter Obi. But we understand his plight, he is too ashamed to go bow at the feet of a man he so much hate. God will disgrace my enemies the way he is disgracing Tinubu's enemies.

Good response from chief bode George

He will go nowhere because Tinubu didn't win...

If the electoral process and guidelines were followed and Tinubu emerged victorious, then he could be bound to honour the pledge but with the obscene manipulation that characterized the process, the man cannot be obliged to bother himself...

Market is very good to me and my family. It's obvious that it's not good to you. I hope Tinubu's government will be good to us all. Meaning, I will be moving from good to better.
