A Peoples Democratic Party chieftain, Bode George, has claimed that the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, is not from Lagos State.
He made this claim on Tuesday during an interview on Arise TV’s show.
Urging the former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, to name the school he attended, George said, “First of all, I am a Lagosian, born, bred, schooled and have no regrets whatever.
Now I know for real that Bola is not a Lagosian. You can quote me from here till the end of the world. I have been to his village, I have been to the school he attended and there is somebody who is still a member of our party who was his junior in that school, they confirmed it.
If he says he grew up in Isale-eko, okay fine, which school did you attend? You know you had a community school. I grew up on Evans Street, that is Evans between Smith Street and Odunfa Street in Lagos; 35 Evans Street was my grandfather’s house, that is the family house.
I went to the community school.”
