“That RUDE BOY called Koro lacks respect for elders” – Bode George,
Former Deputy National Chairman (South) of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Olabode George has been reported as quoted above calling Senator Musiliu Ọ̀banikoro a "rude boy".Please, Chief Ọ̀labọ́de George, when did Koro become a "rude boy"?
Before or after the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria approved him as the Honourable Minister of State for Defence?
Are you insulting the intelligence of the Nigerian Senate for approving his appointment?
Are you insulting the President of Nigeria, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan for appointing him as the High Commissioner to Ghana and later as a Minister?
Are you insulting the electorate who voted for him to become a Senator?
You also insulting those who approved him as an intern with Houston adult Probation Department, Houston, Texas and the American office that interviewed and employed him as social worker and later as the Head of the adolescent unit with Little Flower Children Service (an agency affiliated with New York City Department of Social Service).
You are insulting an honorary citizen of Glenarden, Maryland and Little Rock, Arkansas

Ọ̀mọ́ Ọ̀ba Ọ̀banikoro is not a fool.
He will not settle for less.
He worked hard for PDP Lagos when Jimi ọ́mọ́ Ágbájè was in his one man party and doing other anti-PDP runs and suddenly he joins PDP to come and reap where he has not sowed.
Jimi cannot reap the harvest of Koro.
