A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bode George, has described the opposition coalition-adopted African Democratic Congress (ADC) as a sinking ship.
This is even as he expressed shock at the decision of Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, and Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President, to join the coalition.
Speaking on Channels TV on Thursday, Bode George
accused Atiku and other PDP stalwarts of defecting to the ADC after instigating the crisis currently rocking the opposition party.
He stated, “Those who created the PDP crisis are the ones leaving. We are holding our NEC meeting in the coming week and when we meet, we will discuss the programme of the party.”
He also described PDP as an iroko tree that can’t be shaken by the exit of some members, saying events in the coming days will show that PDP has been resurrected.
“We will approve all the committees that are going to handle the convention of the party.
“The fact that we are in a position to hold that meeting, you will see at the end that the Iroko tree has been resurrected.
“I am shocked that Obi, Atiku, and others are jumping into a ship that is already sinking.”
