Veteran journalist and African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain, Dele Momodu, has declared that neither former Vice President Atiku Abubakar nor Peter Obi owns the ADC.Momodu made the clarification on Wednesday, March 25, 2026, during an interview on Arise Television’s Morning Show.
He stressed that the party alone will decide who flies its presidential ticket in 2027, and not any individual.“Nobody owns the party, not Atiku, not Obi or others,” Momodu said.
“I’m alarmed at which people come on radio and television to spill lies and rewrite our history.“ADC will determine who gets the ticket in terms of strategy, it won’t be at the dictate of one man or woman.”
Momodu also warned that time is not on the side of the ADC in the push to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027.“My advice to ADC is that time is not on our side. I have attempted to contest twice and I know that the head of the elephant is not a child’s play,” he added.
The statement comes amid ongoing discussions and speculations about possible alliances and candidates within the opposition ahead of the next general elections.
Momodu, a former presidential candidate himself, emphasised that the ADC remains an independent party that cannot be controlled by any single politician.
