A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, Bode George, has stated how the party can resolve its lingering internal crises.
George who spoke on Arise TV’s Morning Show, stated that the current crisis within the party can only be added if “the party’s hierarchy “gives unto Caesar what belongs to Caesar.”
He went on to say that since the party’s inception nearly 25 years ago, the North Central, which currently holds the position of national chairman, has dominated the party’s leadership.
He added, “It is not a solution that cannot be handled. All we are saying is give what belongs to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. Give us what belongs to us. Turn by Turn Nigeria Limited. Take for example, what I am angry about is this, the first chairman was late Papa Solomon from North Central. The second chairman, North Central. The third chairman, Audu Ogbe, North Central. The fourth chairman, my oga, Dr Amadu Ali, North Central; Baraje, from Kwara, was also North Central. Now you have Ayu, also North Central.
The Southwest has never enjoyed this position since the party started almost 25 years ago. What is our crime? If you are telling us you want to rule this country you have to weave all the tribes and all the people together. That is the major problem, and unless that is resolved, I will not vote for our own candidate.”
