Why I won’t support Atiku in 2023—Bode George

Bode George, a well-known leader in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has said that he will not support Atiku Abubakar as his party’s candidate for president in the upcoming election unless the issue of inclusivity in the party is fixed.

George said this on the Arise Television Morning Show on Tuesday morning.

Remember that he had backed the call for Iyorchia Ayu to step down as National Chairman of the party, saying that the party’s continued turmoil could hurt its chances of winning the presidential election in 2023.

“PDP becomes vulnerable to disaster in the 2023 elections unless this party returns to the founding fathers’ principles of unity, with equity, fairness, and justice being the pedestal for any political decision taken in this party and ensuring broad-mindedness to accommodate the concerns of all zones in this country,” he had said.

The leader of the PDP repeated what he had said before and said that he would not support Atiku in the upcoming election unless the issue of inclusion in the party is fixed.

“I won’t cast my vote for our party’s presidential nominee.” till the inclusion issue is resolved. Let them take a seat and consider it. Every Nigerian is significant in this election; it is not negotiable.
