2027: Jonathan’s achievements surpass Buhari, Tinubu – Bode George

Former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has said that former President Goodluck Jonathan performed far better in office than both the late President Muhammadu Buhari and the current President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Speaking during an interview with Arise Television on Tuesday, George emphasized that Jonathan’s tenure remains unmatched when compared to the leadership eras of Buhari and Tinubu.

According to him, Jonathan’s administration recorded achievements that, in his view, positioned Nigeria on a more progressive path than what has been experienced under his successors.

He said: “But what is striking, and it’s the fact that they were comparing Jonathan’s period with Buhari and Bola’s period. How? Let’s the will of the people be respected.

“If you look at Jonathan’s period, ask any Nigerian and ask them what have you been feeling since from Buhari’s period to Bola Tinubu’s period.

“Check out the economic indices, is it the interest rate? The inflation rate? The value of Naira compared to the dollar?

“Who is happy now? Whether you’re a rich man or a poor man. You go to the market. Things that they used to buy for maybe about 5,000 Naira is now about 25,000 Naira. And they are claiming that they are economic indices.

“Anybody who is coming out will show their documents. And whatever Nigerians felt during Jonathan’s period and what they are feeling now with the APC in government.

“I said if Jonathan comes and he wins, he has a good record, much better than Buhari and Bola Tinubu together, much better.”
