Potential Atiku-Obi Ticket Is Making APC Panic – Dele Momodu

Dele Momodu

The Publisher of Ovation Magazine, Dele Momodu, has expressed support for a possible joint presidential ticket between Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi on the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in 2027. He recently had his say during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, APC is under pressure despite efforts by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to consolidate support among governors, ministers and lawmakers because of the evolving political landscape and growing opposition alignment.

Momodu added that an Atiku-Obi combination is dangerous they have an identical temperament.

His words, “I’d pair him (Atiku) with Peter Obi because they worked together in 2019, so they already share a similar temperament. Peter Obi came third in the last election, so you don’t have to work too hard to maintain and attract the same group of people who love him.

They (APC) cannot believe that we will have maybe four or five major opposition leaders in the country, and some people will go and put fire in their houses so that none of them will be strong enough to stand against the leader.

It is reality; let’s not hide behind one finger. I keep saying it, Tinubu, today, despite gathering all the governors, ministers, legislators, and what have you, you can see the obvious panic in the party.

Wherever dictatorship thrives, everybody keeps quiet. The majority of my friends are in APC; I pity them. Sometimes they just look like slaves; they grumble behind the master, but they dare not speak up. I pray for them; I wish them well because that is what they have chosen for themselves. I am telling you that Nigeria must be rescued.”

WOW.
