Only God can stop Atiku in 2027, Timi Frank tackles Bode George
Timi Frank, a former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has criticized Chief Olabode George, a former Deputy National Chairman (South) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for claiming he has the authority to dictate the political future of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. George had advised Atiku to wait until 2031 to run for President, suggesting that the PDP would nominate a southern candidate for the 2027 elections.
In a statement released on Thursday, Frank accused George of being delusional and egotistical, stating that George does not have the power to decide who will be Nigeria’s President in 2027.
The former PDP deputy chair had asked Abubakar to contest for the presidency in 2031 because it would not return to the north in 2027.
The former APC deputy spokesperson said George is not even qualified to speak on such matters.
“How can a man living at the mercy of the Supreme Court assume the position of God?,” he said.

“Recall that a Lagos high court had, in 2009, convicted George, who was also former chairman of the Nigerian Ports Authority, and five others on a 23 counts charge of abuse of office and contract splitting.
“He was discharged and acquitted by the supreme court in 2013.
“How can a mortal probably already be at the departure lounge as it is common for all mortals to claim to know the outcome of political events that are still very remote?
“I don’t think George can even raise his voice on state matters at this time because he is not qualified, his acquittal by the apex court notwithstanding.
“This is a man who swore that President Bola Tinubu will not win the 2023 presidential election. This is a man who vowed that he will renounce his Nigerian citizenship and go on self exile to Ghana if Tinubu becomes President and watch Nigerians from his ‘binoculars’ from that neighbouring West African country.”
Frank said it is only God that can decide the fate of the former vice-president.
