A key member of the opposition coalition, Dele Momodu, has
said the 2027 presidential election has become an ethnic contest.
Momodu said the votes of the opposition can only come from
former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Rabiu Kwankwaso, Aminu Tambuwal, Nasir
El-Rufai and Kano Emir, Mohammed Sanusi.
He noted that elections were a game of numbers, adding that
as a democrat, he’s not afraid of healthy electoral competition.
Posting on X, Momodu said all attempts to turn Nigeria into
a one-party state should be discouraged.
He wrote: ” The 2027 Presidential election has patently, and
obviously, become an ethnic contest and the votes for opposition can only come
from the opposite direction where you have Atiku, Kwankwaso, Tambuwal,
El-Rufai, and even Emir Sanusi (if he decides to step down from royalty to
politics).
“The Southern aspirants should also not be disqualified as
long as they are ready for a primary, since popularity can only be verified via
contest or consensus amongst the major opposition groups.
“Everything must be done to discourage a one-party state or
monarchical government.”
