In a recent interview from 16:43 shared by Arise News, PDP chieftain, Chief Bode George, has revisited a key moment in the party’s history, highlighting past internal disagreements that continue to shape its present dynamics.
Reflecting on events during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, George pointed to divisions that emerged within the party at the time. According to him, such incidents contributed to longstanding cracks in party unity and discipline.
“When Goodluck Jonathan was president and there was a presidential convention, Atiku Abubakar led Bukola Saraki and Rabiu Kwankwaso in a walkout of the convention,” he stated.
George explained that the episode reflected deeper disagreements over leadership direction and decision-making processes within the party. He noted that such actions, while political in nature, often leave lasting impacts on party cohesion.
He further emphasized that unity and respect for internal processes are essential for any political party seeking to remain competitive. According to him, repeated divisions weaken the structure of opposition parties and reduce their effectiveness in national politics.
George concluded by urging party stakeholders to learn from past mistakes and prioritize collective interest over individual ambitions to ensure long-term stability. Read_More…
