PDP Members Pushing For Northern Ticket Are Selfish – Bode George
Former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George, has slammed members agitating for the party’s 2027 presidential ticket to be zoned to the North, calling them selfish and manipulative.
Speaking on Channels TV’s Lunchtime Politics on Tuesday, George praised PDP governors and the National Executive Council (NEC) for zoning the ticket to the South while retaining the chairmanship in the North.
“Unanimously, in that NEC meeting, we agreed to zone the ticket to the South for the next four years to complete eight years in the South. But human beings manipulate because they want to grab power, and it’s nothing but self-centredness,” he said.
He thanked the governors for what he described as a fair and balanced decision, insisting that fairness and equity must guide the party’s future.
On dissenting figures like Nyesom Wike and Seyi Makinde, who worked against the PDP in 2023, George said the party would give them time to “roll back and fall in line” but warned that the sledgehammer awaits those who refuse.
The PDP’s decision comes as the APC has already endorsed President Bola Tinubu for re-election in 2027.
