Former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has revealed that he would leave Nigeria if the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinunu, becomes the next president of the country.

The politician disclosed this during an interview with Vanguard, stating that Tinubu being a president will be the greatest joke.

He said “I will relocate from Nigeria, I will leave the country because Tinubu will be your representative in the international plain. Which investment will he bring here?

“I am not talking because I have any hatred for him. This is not the kind of person that 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 no person like Tinubu. Those supporting him are those who have benefited from his largess.

“There is absolutely nothing personal. This is my country. At 77, why will I not be able to tell truth to power? I have some facts about this character.

“The most annoying part is what he (Tinubu) said that he had been a kingmaker all his life and now, he wants to be king.

“Let me remind him (Tinubu) because he is a Yoruba man. In my part of the world, kingmakers are called afobaje. When you are a kingmaker, you do not throw yourself in the ring and say you want to be king”.
