2023: Tinubu will take Nigeria to the gutters if he becomes president – Bode George

A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George has said Bola Tinubu will take Nigeria to the gutters if elected as President of Nigeria.

George, who noted that he has nothing against the former Lagos State Governor, said he will leave Nigeria if the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) emerges as the President of the country in 2023.

Speaking in an interview, Bode George said Tinubu does not have what it takes to manage the country and that he would be the greatest joke on the international plane if elected as President of Nigeria.

“I have nothing personal, this man (Tinubu) does not have what it takes to manage this country. If he does, Nigerians will regret it.

“Who is he? In his character, in his name, or educational qualification. What I am telling him is what I know. If Nigerians are dumb enough not to see that and they choose that he is the one they want to put forward as president, I wish them the best of luck.

“I won’t be part of it here, because he will take the country to the gutters,” Bode George said in the interview with Vanguard.

He went on to say: “I will move away from Nigeria, I’ll leave because he will be your representative in the international plane. Which investment will he bring here?

“I am not talking because I have any hatred for him. This is not the kind of person we can hand over this massive country to manage. He will be the greatest joke on the international plane. We should bother who should lead us”.

This is coming after Tinubu disclosed that he has informed President Muhammadu Buhari about his intention to run for the office of the President in the 2023 general elections.
