Bode George, the former Military governor of Ondo State and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has talked about Bola Tinubu. He asked the president-elect and former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, to tell Nigerians and the world the truth about his state of origin and other backgrounds. In an exclusive interview with Sunday PUNCH, George said Tinubu has been claiming that he is from Lagos but it is not true. He urged Tinubu to say the truth and tell Nigerians that he is from Iragbiji in the Boripe Local Government Area of Osun State. 

There have been controversies surrounding Tinubu ranging from issues regarding questionable wealth, ill health, allegations of certificate forgery and corruption, bagman to drug (heroin) traffickers, money laundering ring investigation and place of origin.

On the outcome of the 2023 presidential election in which the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) winner and president-elect, the interviewer said, “The winner, Tinubu, is from your state and the presidency of Nigeria is a lot of work, have you congratulated him or will you still do it?”

In his response, George said, “He is not from my state. He should now come clean because he is from Iragbiji in Osun State. Tell the truth and let the devil be ashamed. He is claiming Lagos but that is not true.

“The battle is still long. If Yakubu had gone through the process and as enacted by the law and he turns out to be the winner, we would have congratulated him.”

Enough of the rantings from this amorphous politician who became what he is today courtesy of late Admiral Koshoni.

Even if it is true, which it isn't, and so f...ing what? Is Iragbiji not Yoruba land? Are Iragijians not Omo Kaaro Ojires? Baba Jail Bird, what value have you who claimed to originate from Lagos added to Lagos or to the people of Lagos in all of your useless life? BAT has added immeasurable value. You should be kissing his foot and thanking him everyday for the good he has done for Lagos and for its people.

what does where he is coming from matter? Useless lagosian, no wonder the igbos have taken over all your lands because if a yoruba man want to buy, you will say they dont have the money! Vivour is on his way as half igbo to be governor, the next one will be a full blooded igbo....I hope then you will say, "he's not from my tribe" . Oloshi
