I Will Work With Tinubu If He Consults Me- Bode George

The former deputy national chairman (south) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George has stated that he is open to working with President Bola Tinubu if he consults him.

The PDP chieftain said this at his Ikoyi office in Lagos while fielding questions from journalists.

George has been antagonistic towards Tinubu, long before the latter’s bid for the presidency.

However, in the interview, George said there is nothing personal behind his opposition to Tinubu’s presidency, saying he’s ready to work with him for the interest of the nation.

“If he comes and says look, what do you feel about this, what do you feel about that, let’s work together in the interest of this country, why would I refuse? This nation also trained me,” he said

“The military trained me. There is no part of the world that I have not been to, training and doing exercises. This country trained us. So, we must be able to put something back to the system that would also positively impact on the younger ones, to put a smile on their faces.’’

On the protracted crisis in PDP, his political party, George said the disagreements on the principle of zoning during the campaign for the presidency “landed the party in a deck”.
