PDP leader in Lagos state, Chief Bode George says
he will be leading a massive campaign against the
APC in Lagos so that his party's flagbearer, Jimi
Agbaje can win the April 11th Governorship
election. Speaking with Punch yesterday April 2nd ,
Bode George said
"I am here and I will be at the center of
operation. The people of Lagos also want a
change and we are going to be here to lead
the battle. The battle is on and the people
of Lagos want a change and we will ensure
that we get it right. Lagos people know that
this administration has mismanaged their
resources. We are not leaving anything
undone. We will reach out to the people
during the campaigns.”
In the interview, Bode George denied saying that
he would be going on exile because Buhari won
presidential election. According to him, he would
only be taking a long holiday to finish writing his
autobiography.
"I have been travelling long before now and
now I need a long rest. I am 70 and I need
to tidy up my memoirs and if you want to do
that, you need a lot of time away from all
of the hassles. But it does not mean I will
no longer be a Nigerian. I have no personal
grudge against Buhari or all the other
people. We are in two different parties with
different ideologies and if he is the
President, I have no objection and I wish
him the best of luck. The break will give me
time. Rather than running up and down to
Abuja, I will be there (abroad) writing my
memoirs and doing other things for myself.
Of course I will come back, my mother is
still alive. I am not scampering out of
Nigeria.”
