2027 coalition: ‘Keep again in PDP’ – Bode George begs Atiku, others

A former PDP Deputy National Chairman, Olabode George, has urged former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to remain in the party and work for the progress of the party.

George also appealed to other PDP leaders, including former Senate President, Sen. David Mark, the arrowhead of a coalition of opposition parties which has adopted African Democratic Congress (ADC) for 2027, to return to the party.

He spoke at a social engagement tagged “Restitution of Restoration” on Thursday in Lagos.

George said PDP remained a strong political platform, offering great opportunities for members.

According to George, it is only in the PDP that the interest of the estranged party leaders can be better served.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that several opposition figures, mainly from PDP, Labour Party, and others, including some aggrieved APC chieftains, recently adopted ADC as the opposition platform for 2027.

He said, “There is no coalition in today’s Nigeria that can be stronger than PDP.

The PDP is a reborn political party that has weathered all storm and can never go under. All these leaders must return to this Iroko political party.

Those forming coalition should not forget they have traveled that way before, and it amounts to nothing and it will be good they remain in the party to help build it.”

According to him, party leaders leaving the party to join an opposition coalition are desecrating the grave of the founding fathers of the party, who sacrificed everything to give birth to the party.

“It is a disservice to the party whose platform they used to get to higher position in the country,” he added.

George noted that the PDP crisis, especially at national level, had been resolved.

He added that the party had bounced back to take over its place as the major opposition party in the country.

George said with the resolution of the issues in PDP and return of peace, all the reasons cited by Atiku and others for forming a coalition were no more tenable.

“The party has weathered the storm, this party is re-born, those that have attained higher position in the country on the platform of the party should do a re-think.

They should take it easy, there is no way their congregating can pass the PDP strength.

They have done it before, there is no major issue of contention in the PDP that can make them leave the PDP,” he said.

He, however, said the party had not changed its decision to zone the presidency to the South in 2027.

“What is the contention about? Why do they want to leave the PDP? They want to be presidential candidate?

Positions are zoned in the PDP. The founding fathers of the party zoned position because lack of zoning of positions led to the collapse of the First and Second Republic,” he added.
