APC replies Bode George

Published

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken a swipe at the former National Deputy Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chief Bode George, for calling for the probe of former governors Bola Tinubu and Babatunde Fashola,, saying he must have just woken up from a chronic hallucination after suffering a choking and devastating defeat in the hands of the APC.
The party therefore advised him to keep quiet and nurse the wounds of the double defeats suffered by his party in the last general elections.
In a statement issued on Thursday by the Publicity Secretary, Mr. Joe Igbokwe, APC said George has no moral right to claim ‘holier than thou’.
“The APC in Lagos has asked Chief Bode George to keep quiet for now and continue to nurse the wounds inflicted on him by the colossal defeat his party suffered at both the national and the state levels in the just concluded elections.

“Chief George, like the Lagos PDP Chairman, Tunji Shelle, has just woken up from a chronic hallucination after suffering a choking and devastating defeat in the hands of the APC.
“Bode George has yet to come to terms with the fact that it is all over for the PDP in Nigeria and Lagos. He has yet to believe that the Lagos APC has forcefully retired him from active politics forever in Nigeria and Lagos State,” the statement read in part.
The party maintained that it was hypocritical of George to call Tinubu and Fashola corrupt and yet campaigned for a corrupt party like the PDP.
It added that George was the architect of his party’s failure in Lagos state as he wanted to do everything for personal gain through imposition of candidates.

    This man call Joe, lost it all or preferable as publicity secretary. Is no more a secret that your party is calling Mr. Fashola a thief, right? If so then what brought the issue of losing an election here? Your statement is just diversionary and it doesn’t make sense. Go and learn how responds to an issue
