A prominent member and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, Bode George, has said he will not vote for his party’s presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in next year’s presidential election, unless the
issue of inclusivity in the party is addressed.
George disclosed this on Tuesday morning while featuring on
the Arise Television Morning Show programme.
Recall that he had supported the call for Iyorchia Ayu to
step down from his position as the party’s National Chairman, saying the
lingering crisis bedevilling the party might cause its defeat in the 2023
presidential election.
“Until 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, PDP becomes vulnerable
to disaster in the 2023 elections,” he had said.
While re-stating his earlier stance, the PDP chieftain said
he would not vote for Atiku in the forthcoming election unless the issue of
inclusivity in the party is addressed.
“I will not vote for the presidential candidate of our
party. Until the issue of inclusivity is addressed. Let them sit down, and
think over it. It is not negotiable; every Nigerian is important for this
election.”
