A South-West leader of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, on Monday said the party would make a national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, irrelevant in Lagos politics from February.

George, who addressed PDP supporters at the inauguration of the party's governorship rally in Ikeja, expressed optimism that the PDP governorship candidate in Lagos State, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, would defeat his APC counterpart, Mr. Akinwumi Ambode, at the polls.


The PDP leader alleged that Tinubu had mortgaged the economy of the state to suit his interests, adding that the APC-led state government had operated an exploitative rule.


He said "We are ready this year to root out the APC which has failed the state. This February is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end the reign of Tinubu in Lagos.Even the APC leaders told us that they want change, so we will give it to them.

For 16 years, the APC has taken this state on a journey that has leaded us nowhere. This February, we will end Tinubu’s reign. As you all can see, all the governorship aspirants who contested alongside Agbaje are here. There is no dissenting voice in the PDP. We are united.

Jonathan has reduced university fees, created 12 new universities, transformed our railway system. He has numerous achievements in the health, education and agriculture sectors. I ask, what has Tinubu done in Lagos? Let us reject them with our votes. Use your Permanent Voter Cards to vote them out in February.

The arrival of the immediate past Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, attracted loud cheers from the supporters.

Obanikoro, who claimed to know Ambode very well, said the APC governorship candidate does not have the qualities of a governor.

The former minister said, “Agbaje started from the scratch and built his business from a small scale to a medium scale and then to the level of a manufacturer. He is a man of integrity and a man of the people.He is not a stooge of any politician.

The only way out of Tinubu's impending defeat is to sacrifice Buhari which I'm afraid he'll do.

What is he manufacturing? where is the pharmaceutical manufacturing plant? in the sky? Aside his rundown pharmacy shop, what else can he boast to have successfully run, a man that was almost going under but for magnanimity of LASG to give him supply contracts.

PDP is a rejected party in Lagos.

APC in Lagos has refused to engage them in the violence they've been perpetuating because we don't want the government to get more excuse to postpone the elections.

They will all flee Lagos by next month.
