Unbelievable!” – Bode George Reacts To Peter Mbah’s Sudden Political Move

Published

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has expressed surprise over the defection of Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Governor Mbah formally announced his exit from the PDP on Tuesday.

Speaking during an interview on Politics Today, a Channels Television programme, George said he was completely taken aback by the governor’s decision, noting that he never anticipated such a move despite several reconciliatory efforts by party elders.

“I never saw it at any time. In fact, when Anyanwu was brought back as secretary to complete his assignment, he asked his people not to attend meetings,” George said.

While wishing Mbah well in his new political path, the PDP stalwart maintained that the party remained strong and united despite recent defections.

George also questioned the increasing trend of sitting governors leaving their parties for the APC, arguing that governors do not solely define a political party.

“Governors alone don’t make a party; they are only an added value. The people are the true foundation of any political party,” he said.

He further challenged the APC’s performance record, asking, “What has the APC done to put smiles on the faces of Nigerians? What are the economic indices? It’s not about being in government and thinking they can manipulate results to win elections. We will go to the field and campaign to the people.”
