A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George, has accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of neglecting the country’s security challenges while allegedly focusing on weakening opposition parties.
In a statement that has sparked political debate, Bode George claimed that the president is more concerned with influencing the activities of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to destabilize rival political groups.
He expressed concern over the state of insecurity in parts of the country, urging the federal government to prioritize the safety of citizens and address ongoing threats affecting communities.
The remarks have generated mixed reactions across political circles, with supporters of the ruling party dismissing the claims, while opposition voices say the concerns reflect broader issues within the political space.
As of the time of reporting, there has been no official response from the presidency or INEC regarding the allegations.
Observers note that such exchanges are common in Nigeria’s political landscape, especially as debates around governance, security, and democratic institutions continue to shape public discourse.
