Leader of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Lagos State,
Mr Bode George, says the loss his party suffered in the presidential
election has strengthened his resolve to ensure victory for his party in Lagos.
He, therefore, said that he would strategise and lead a
massive campaign against the All Progressives Congress, which has been in power
in Lagos for the past 16 years.
George told our correspondent during a telephone interview
on Wednesday that he would lead the campaign of the PDP governorship candidate,
Mr. Jimi Agbaje, like an army general.
He said, “I am here and I will be at the centre of
operation. The people of Lagos also want a change and we are going to be here
to lead the battle. The battle is on and the people of Lagos want a change and
we will ensure that we get it right.
“Lagos people know that this administration has mismanaged
their resources. We are not leaving anything undone. We will reach out to the
people during the campaigns.”
George said he would never defect to another party. “I will
remain a member of the PDP till I leave this world,” he said.
The PDP leader denied reports that he said he would go on
exile following the victory of Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential polls.
He said he would rather travel outside the country for a
while in order to finish writing his autobiography, saying he had been unable
to finish the book because of his busy schedule.
