Political Tantrums: Bode George Needs Therapy For His Time in Jail - Obanikoro

After Musliu Obanikoro lost his primaries, it seems all is not well with him and his party members. Obanikoro former minister of state for defence has advised Bode George, Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to seek therapy for his time in jail; THIS DAY reports. Obanikoro gave the advice in response to George's recent statement titled ''Enough of Obanikoro's Lunacy''

A Saturday statement signed by Obanikoro read, ''if not to set records straight, engaging Chief Bode George in an exchange of words would mean painfully indulging a man in desperate need of social rehabilitation after a traumatic stint in jail.

''Indeed, there is nothing unexpected about the recent tantrums by Chief Bode George targeted at me in spite of the ignoble role he played in the fraudulent outcome of the Lagos PDP gubernatorial primaries.

''As Chief Bode George embarks on his feeble attempts at painting a picture of me that exists only in his perverted imagination, let someone remind him that the post-traumatic stress disorder that comes with a time in jail would take more than just an unholy alliance with a pharmacist to heal. It is instructive to state here that not only that I am properly raised in the best of Yoruba tradition, I owe a large part of my successful public service career to a childhood and education built on godly principles and sound moral values.

''In all my life and public service career, I have never been accused, arrested or convicted for fraud whether at home in Nigeria or abroad and I have been happily and responsibly married for 34 years.”
