A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has expressed worry over the security situation in the country, saying that it has gone beyond control.
George stated this in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday.
According to him, the situation of the country at the moment has gone beyond playing politics, adding that President Bola Tinubu has a lot of work to do and Nigerians are ready to give him time.
He said, “The state of our nation has been completely in a shambolic situation, it is perpetual despair and despondency. There is hunger in the land and there is anger in the land; the insecurity has gone beyond control.
“So, when you look at all those things; we are all Nigerians and I listened to his (Tinubu) New Year speech and I also listened to what Chief Osoba said, this is not the time to play politics, it is our nation. He (Tinubu) has a hell of a job to do and I have listened to him.
“He has these eight objectives for the year, national defence, internal security, and job creation; the man who left who was my oga did a woeful job, he did not do well at all; they belong to the same party.
“So, we all Nigerians will give him a chance, let us see how he is going to handle it. Bola Tinubu, God will guide him – he is in the hottest seat in the whole of Africa today because for every 10 Africans 6 are Nigerians, brilliant people. So nobody can pull any wool over our eyes, I pray for him, I pray for our country.”
