A leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State Jacob Egietseme Idinye has criticised the party’s ex-Deputy National Chairman (South) Olabode George for his comments against ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
George had claimed that Atiku would not become President in 2027. However, Idinye at a breakfast meeting with some selected journalists on Saturday in Lagos faulted George’s comment.
He further noted that PDP should be made stronger, and formidable and as well create a niche for itself to become a political party capable of winning the 2027 presidential election rather than nursing disputes that could eventually affect the party’s fortunes and its general success.
He said: “Chief Olabode George should continue to wallow in self-delusion and ego trip,” Idinye said George lacked the temerity to determine who will lead the nation in 2027.
