Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bode George, has called on President Bola Tinubu to rejig his economic team because Nigerians are suffering.<\/p>\n

George said there are Nigerians from other parts of the country who can offer him economic advice.<\/p>\n

He made the call during his address to the nation titled \u201cMy Thoughts on The State of Our Country in the Last 25 Years: A Time to Chart A New Direction\u201d in Lagos on Thursday.<\/p>\n

According to George: \u201cThis is not the time to play party or regional politics. Nigerians have suffered enough and they want fast results.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the time for Tinubu to rejig his economic team. There are many Nigerians \u2013 from the North to the South \u2013 who can offer him economic advice that can turn this country around.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can achieve this if we start to redefine our value system, to rejig and restructure the various anomalies that presently hinder the greater possibilities of the Nigerian union.\u201d<\/p>\n
