Atiku Should Step Down For Another PDP Presidential Candidate – Bode George

Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Deputy National Chairman, Chief Olabode George has come out to appeal to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar to shelve his 2027 presidential ambition and allow younger Nigerians to run.

He recently made his appeal in an interview on Arise Television, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Atiku would be 81 years old in 2027, and he would be too old at the time to govern the country, so it is time for him to give others a chance.

He added that Atiku should give room for younger Nigerians who still have the energy and the brain to develop the country.

His words, “My brother Atiku Abubakar was 77 years old last year, and by 2027 he will be 81 years old. Atiku should give room for younger Nigerians, who still have the energy and the brain to develop the country.

Atiku should be in a situation where he plays like the big uncle in the room or the elder in the room.

What would anybody carry me now to do because I’m heading to 80 years old and I want to go and be a minister? To do what?

Let’s mentor the younger generation, and let’s be consistent with our strong belief in our party norms.

No other party is as entrenched and national in all concepts as the PDP. In 2027, I can’t tell anybody not to contest, but our party must be definitive that the presidency must remain in the South since the North has finished its eight years.”

WOW.
