Nigeria will collapse without PDP – Bode George

A former national Deputy chairman of the Peoples’ Democratic Party,PDP, Chief Olabode George, has declared that Nigeria will fade into a cultural pot of time without the leadership of the PDP.

Olabode stated this yesterday at a media interactive session in Lagos. He called on founding fathers of the
ruling party to intervene in the crisis within it, emphasising that doing so means saving the country’s democracy from total collapse.

He said,“PDP is the only party that carries the pan-Nigerian coloration from the swampy forests to the Savannah. Every corner, you’ll find the PDP, if PDP collapses, this nation will collapse,” he said with a call on founding fathers to rescue the party.

According to the retired Naval Officer, the country has witnessed long span of democratic dispensation due to the pan-Nigerian outlook of the PDP, insisting that the stability in Nigeria has been associated with the level of stability within the PDP.

“Never in the history of the country have we had a party that is national in outlook. In PDP there is no tribal coloration. The concept of operations in the PDP has helped democracy to grow in the country,” he said.
