A Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) called out Chief Olabode George, the former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for claiming that Atiku Abubakar cannot contest the 2027 presidential polls under the ticket of the party.

Frank, in a statement to the media on Thursday, August 29, accused George of living in self-delusion and an ego trip, stating that he lacks the power to determine the fate of Atiku, the PDP 2023 presidential candidate, and who will be Nigeria's next President.

His comments come after George said in an interview that Atiku must wait for the 2031 contest before vying for the candidacy, insisting that a Southerner must occupy the office from 2023 to 2031.

Frank reminded George that he is not God and cannot decide Atiku's fate or future if he decides to run for the presidency in 2027. Given his past conviction and acquittal by the Supreme Court in 2013, he questioned the PDP leader's ability to make such claims.

The APC chieftain accused George of making false predictions, including claiming that Tinubu would not win the 2023 presidential election.

Recall that George had once vowed to renounce his Nigerian citizenship and go on self-exile to Ghana if Tinubu became President, but APC Frank told George to publicly apologize to Tinubu for his 2023 political misjudgments, seek forgiveness, and patronage.
