Reconcilation between Bola Tinubu and Bode George
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe has called on PDP politicians to work towards reconciling Bode George and Bola Tinubu.
Igbokwe referred to Bode George as the only PDP heavyweight that is yet to decamp to the ruling APC or other parties that have joined to form the party.
He also said that should peace be brokered between George and Tinubu there would be an improved development in Lagos state.

Also, in a reaction to the newly submitted Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry, the PDP has condemned the ruling APC.
The party described APC as a murderous and oppressive regime in which agents must be brought to book.
PDP leadership also called for the arrest and prosecution of those who perpetrated the criminal activities at the Lekki Toll Gate on October 20, 2020.
