A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Bode George, has said those canvassing for former Lagos Governor, Bola Tinubu, to succeed the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd,), require medical attention.

The PDP Board of Trustees member threatened to renounce his citizenship should   Tinubu emerge president of the country in 2023.

George stated this on Wednesday when he featured on Arise TV’s The Morning Show.

While responding to the claims by a former Minister of Works, who described Tinubu as the best candidate to lead the country in 2023, George said, “When I heard Ogunlewe say Tinubu is the best presidential candidate for this country, it got me thinking.

“This is because, if you go into your archives, you would have seen the vicious comments made by Ogunlewe against Bola Tinubu.

“Why can’t people be consistent? Why are you dancing like a masquerade in the market? If we take Tinubu’s tenure in Lagos – the entire eight years he spent here – and put it on a scale of one to ten, how would we judge him? It is not going to be more than one.

“We are still talking about the way he has appropriated the funds of this state. The Alpha Beta that he is still using to siphon the treasury of Lagos State is still on.”

“For God’s sake, is that the kind of man for the job? No. I am ready to debate with Ogunlewe anywhere, even in the graveyard at 3am. He is talking absolute nonsense. The best man to be Nigeria’s President? I will do whatever is necessary to review and renounce my citizenship if that happens.

“Look at the state. No drains. Look at what they put at the bar beach. What about the toll gate that they paid him over N30b for?”
