A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Dele Momodu, has disclosed that the party can topple President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Momodu said with the likes of former Vice President Atiku
Abubakar and Peter Obi, the ADC can “topple” Tinubu in 2027.
In an interview on Channels Television’s Morning Brief on
Thursday, Momodu said ADC can remove Tinubu with its chieftains like Nasir
El-Rufai, Aminu Tambuwal, and Rotimi Amaechi.
He said: “There will always be hardliners in politics, it’s
a matter of principle and strategy. At this stage nobody should say it’s only
my candidate and it should be my candidate, but don’t let it get acrimonious.
“We have to be careful because that is the wish of the
ruling party that we will not be able to agree or disagree to agree.
“I have spoken to Peter Obi privately and publicly, so at
this stage I believe that our alliance should be to the party that includes me.
“I have said it that if I wanted a candidate, my own
candidate will be Atiku for matters of strategy, on matters of exposure,
experience, and in the days of tributions, you run to the elders of the house
who can now bring out the wisdom to make sure that things are straightened out.
“There are many big whiz who can deliver for ADC, they
include the former governor of Sokoto State, Tambuwal; El-Rufai, Amaechi, so we
have a rich and robust line for the ADC, so for me, it’s not about one man.
“And of course, we have Mr Peter Obi, who INEC recorded,
maybe, controversially as coming third, Atiku coming second in the last election.
So ADC is blessed.
“The top three candidates in the last election, ADC already
parades two of them, so that should tell us that if we manage ourselves very
well we already have overwhelming votes to topple the APC.
“APC is one position so I don’t know why people think it’s
impossible to remove Asiwaju.
“Trust me, for as long as we give INEC close marking and
that is why you need candidates who will be given to generate the fire power to
take on APC on their own turf.”
