A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Bode George, has given an excuse for Bola Tinubu’s poor performance in office in the last year.
Speaking in an interview on Arise Television on Friday, the PDP chieftain said that even though Tinubu was part of those who formed the Buhari government, taking over and now leading the nation will be different.
George, asked Nigerians to give Tinubu one more year to deliver on his electoral promises and turn around the fortunes of the country.

In his words, “Tinubu has never served in this level. Well… you will say he was part of the party (APC) that formed the government of Muhammadu Buhari but it’s a hell of a different thing taking over and now leading the team.
“To be fair to my conscience, he has had that one-year holiday of trying to study the failures of the past administration. I have given him that one year of grace because now he has seen it and lived there.
“Even former President Olusegun Obasanjo needed time to adjust in his first year in office, so also Tinubu’s lack of presidential experience warrants a grace period of a year,” he said.
