Frank attacks Bode George over Atiku's saga

Legit.ng earlier reported that former APC national publicity secretary Timi Frank has tackled PDP leader and chieftain Bode George for warning Atiku Abubakar against contesting the 2027 presidency.

Timi Frank said the PDP leader did not have the capacity to determine who would be Nigeria's president or the fate of Atiku, the leading opposition's 2023 presidential candidate.

Recall that Bode George recently told the former vice president that he should wait till 2031 before contesting for Nigerian president again.
