Bode George is a prominent Nigerian politician and a former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He is known for his strong advocacy for true federalism in Nigeria and has been vocal about the need to address the country's governance issues through structural reform rather than the creation of additional states. Recently, he made headlines by rejecting proposals for the establishment of 31 new states, arguing that such measures would not effectively tackle Nigeria's challenges and advocating instead for a comprehensive overhaul of the nation's constitution and a devolution of power to empower local governments and states.
