Bode George, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says Nigerians will regret if they elect former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, as president in 2023.

Mr George, a former military governor of Osun State, stated this in an interview with Vanguard Newspapers while reacting to the declaration of interest of Mr Tinubu into the presidential race.

He said he won’t support for the former governor because he is unfit for the position, warning of regrets should Nigerians elect the national leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC) as president.

“I won’t support him (Tinubu),” the PDP chief said. “I am talking as a senior citizen in this country. I have nothing personal, this man does not have what it takes to manage this country. If he does Nigerians will regret it.

“If Nigerians are dumb enough not to see that (incompetence) and they choose that he is the one they want to put forward as president, I wish them the best of luck,” he added.

When asked if he will go on exile should the former governor be elected president, he answered in the affirmative, “because he (Tinubu) will take the country to the gutters.”

The APC chieftain while declaring for the top job earlier in the week said it was his life-long ambition to lead the country he once said he doesn’t believe in.

After his declaration, Nigerians on social media began raising controversial questions about his lineage, origin, source of wealth, age, among others.

Since I have never regretted voting Asiwaju Tinubu in Lagos since 1992, I won't regret voting for Asiwaju Tinubu as President in 2023.

Asiwaju Tinubu,by dint of hardwork, brilliance and capacity to deliver great visions, earned the respect, love, admiration and support of most Lagosians, dating back to his days as our Senator in Lagos West.
Asiwaju Tinubu is extremely capable and competent to lead Nigeria to greater heights.
Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu. Ignore folks with no antecedent of sterling performance in public service like Pa George.
Ignore the scaremongers, naysayers and enemies of Nigeria IPOB terrorists who deploy lies, hatred and bigotry against PMB and Asiwaju as a political strategy for winning debate or election.
May God bless Nigeria forever.

Since I have never regretted voting Asiwaju Tinubu in Lagos since 1992, I won't regret voting and appealing to other fellow patriotic Nigerians to please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu as President in 2023.

Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.

Ignore folks with no antecedent of sterling performance in public service like Pa George. If Pa George had performed well right from his days as Military Governor in Old Ondo state and as Chairman of NPA days when contract splitting fraud once landed him a criminal conviction until it was upturned by the SC on technical terms, he won't have been struggling to give his party, PDP, a foothold in Lagos State since 1999.


Ignore the scaremongers, naysayers and enemies of Nigeria IPOB terrorists who deploy lies, hatred and bigotry against PMB and Asiwaju as a political strategy for winning debate or election.
Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu. Asiwaju Tinubu is an experienced public administrator and a Patriot. He will deliver excellence in governance.

May God bless Nigeria forever.

Na only Yoruba Muslims dey front Tinubu. Go to Facebook you will only find names like Afeez, Ramoni, saeed, waleed supporting that evil spirit. Chronic Afonja skullers

SarkinYarki:
How can you say you have been voting Tinubu since 1992 ...abeg easy with the lies

kernniejay:
I can't imagine in my wierdest thinking how enlightened and knowledgeble Nigerians that have working brains will harness their support for a man with everything shady, from age to origin to source of wealth.

The same man who led them into the current quagmire they are into by hoisting an incompetent and sickly president on them with his attendants hardship and woes, now comes up with his own intention to rule with the expressed propaganda of continuing from where the current man would pause the hardship as he has said his aim is to build on the foundation already laid which is obviously nothing but economic disaster with its tales of anguish and regret, which the same Tinubu supporters are also pertakers in, yet some would not mind paying with their blood for him to become president!

It is only those that have been destined to suffer in life that will come out of a yoke and go ahead to stick their necks yet again into another yoke.

Karlovych:
He denied his Iragbiji relatives by claiming to be from Lagos, everything he does is for his own selfish interest.
#Nigeria is not Lagos State

All these don't win elections Bros.


It's most appropriate that you start campaigning for the best candidate that you think can solve the problems.

You can't stop people from contesting or supporting whoever they like.

kernniejay:
I know i can't stop people from contesting neither can I stop anyone from voting whoever they will. It simply shows that it is their destiny to live in perpetual sorrow and regret.

Tinubu contested for and won Lagos
Central Senatorial District in 1992.
