George, who spoke on Arise TV on Friday, accused the then-national chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu and Atiku, of orchestrating the problem in the PDP, saying they disrupted the party’s zoning arrangement.

The elder statesman attributed the unresolved crisis in the PDP to the outcome of the party’s national convention in 2022, adding that he temporarily supported Wike and his group during the build-up to the 2023 general election because the party’s top positions were zoned to the northern region.

“The presidential candidate went to the northern zone, and the chairman of the party also went to the same zone; we said no, it can’t happen like this.

“That was the basis of the party’s crisis. I didn’t just jump ship to be with Wike or Atiku; I had meetings with both of them and Ayu; they disrupted the system,” he said.

George explained that before taking sides with Wike, he tried to persuade Atiku and Ayu to reason with him, but they didn’t listen.

The Lagos-based politician said he took sides with Wike because he was disgusted with what Atiku and Ayu did at the convention.

He, however, noted that he dumped Wike’s group when he realised they wanted to support Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

“And when Wike people came, we had a meeting, and they made me a leader. In the end, we had two presidential candidates from the South, and they said they believed that Bola was the better person.

“I told them that if they stepped out of this meeting and talked about it outside there, I would counter you. You guys have no idea who this gentleman (Tinubu) is. He had ruled my state (Lagos), and we know his modus operandi,” George added.

Give Atiku power today and you'll find out that when it comes to Nepotism, he's worst than Buhari, the north had just finished 8 years, you came back from Dubai to buy the presidential primary, and still zoned the party's chairmanship to the north, even Buhari didn't have the gut to do that.

After Wike had kept the party afloat after you left in 2015, you came back to just throw money around, oya keep the party at peace now.

You are just too foolish cos you don't always make sense in your writeups. How will a northern replaced another one. Why did you think the Northerners are not willing to support Obi instead Atiku cos they feel Obi will like to do two tenure and that take south to 12 straight years if for instance Tinubu is not re elected. For you to still choose Atiku a northerner over Tinubu and Obi and you are from the south, shows you want personal benefit.

mrvitalis:
First things first I don't like atiku you can accuse him of any thing but Nepotism? That's a big lie very very big lie

And no body can be worse at nepotism than Tinubu Buhari self is learning

kedeojo:
Why did Atiku didn't tell Ayu to honour his agreement of stepping down when a northerner pick the 2023 pdp presidential ticket. Atiku is same too like the others. He knew if the chairman comes from south and his promise of only one tenure and further re elected will be difficult cos Wike will probably influence the chairmanship candidate. Atiku is wasting his time, he can't be president of Nigeria. Even if he still pick the pdp 2027 ticket, what happened in pdp last election will be a childsplay. He will be fought internally again.
