Bode George, chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP), has appealed to “those jumping ship” from the party to “calm down”.
In a chat with Arise TV on Wednesday, George urged aggrieved
members of the PDP to stay put and resolve the party’s problems.
The PDP chieftain’s plea comes a few weeks after the G5 — an
aggrieved faction of the party — met with President Bola Tinubu at the state
house in Abuja.
Nyesom Wike, former governor of Rivers and a prominent
member of the G5, has held more meetings with the president.
The visitations have spurred concerns within the PDP about
the potential defection of the members of the G5 to the All Progressives
Congress (APC).
Speaking on the development, George said PDP members “must
never allow this party to crack up”.
“We are still in court, and everyone still thinks they can
win. Until the court decides who actually won the election, it will be a futile
exercise trying to bring all sides together,” he said.
“In fact, I want to
advise those who are jumping ship now to calm down because you can hear the APC
leadership complain about the crack in the leaders of the party in the senate.
‘When you have a problem in your house, it is better to stay
in that house and resolve the problem. There is nothing impossible to do if you
have a fear of God.
“I want to appeal to all sides. Let us not allow this party
to go down. We must never allow this party to crack up.”
