Bode George revealed sources of PDP crisis
George attributed some of the party’s challenges to manipulations during the tenure of former National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu. He emphasized the need for the party to return to its founding principles to restore stability. George’s comments suggest that the PDP is committed to addressing its internal issues and emerging stronger ahead of the 2027 elections.
In addition to addressing the PDP’s internal challenges, George also called on President Bola Tinubu to reduce the price of petrol to ₦300 per litre during the festive season. He argued that this gesture would spread happiness across tribes and households, especially during the critical months of December and January. George noted that the government can absorb the losses and that funds can be allocated to offset the cost of this reduction.
George also criticized the rising cost of goods and services, attributing it to high fuel prices. He urged the government to prioritize the welfare of citizens, emphasizing that a reduction in petrol prices would positively impact lives during the festive period. George’s comments highlight the need for the government to take proactive steps to address the economic challenges facing Nigerians.
