    We Don’t Want Atiku As PDP Presidential Candidate In 2027 – Bode George

    A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olabode George has warned that the party will collapse if the presidential ticket is given to Atiku Abubakar in 2027.

    Atiku, who was a former Vice- President of Nigeria was the PDP’s presidential candidate in the 2029 and 2023 presidential elections.

    George made the remark on Monday while appearing on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

    He said that if the former vice president was a true leader of the party, he would be fully involved in its affairs.

    “If Atiku were truly the leader of the party, he would have been fully involved in party affairs. The fact that he was the presidential candidate in the last election does not automatically make him a bona fide or permanent leader of the PDP.

    “If he is pursuing his own private interest, that is entirely different from the interest of the party.

    “He (Atiku) cannot be the presidential candidate of the PDP in 2027. I maintain that since the North has had the presidency for eight years, it is only fair and just for the South to have its turn for another eight years. That is the doctrine and foundation of the PDP.

    “Now, I can’t say Atiku cannot contest—he has the constitutional right to do so. He can go to any other party and contest.

    “But if he picks the PDP ticket in 2027, that will be the end of this party. I want to make it clear: if he (Atiku) secures the ticket (PDP) through any form of manipulation—as happened the last time—we will not accept it,” Bode George stated.
