Dele Momodu: APC Scared of Atiku, But ADC Will Beat Them at Their Game

Prominent media personality and former PDP stalwart Dele Momodu has accused Nigeria’s ruling APC party of scheming to transform the nation into a single-party state. However, he asserted that the emerging opposition force ADC would strategically defeat them “in their own game.”

The outspoken publisher shared these views during a Thursday interview on Arise News, which Spear News documented.

Momodu, a longtime political associate of ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, formally left the PDP hours after Atiku’s high-profile switch to ADC.

Momodu said it was clear that the APC was “is in a bit of a hurry to contest the 2027 election, if possible, today.”

Momodu also accused the ruling party of being behind the persisting crisis in the PDP that left them with no choice but the dump the party.

“We were chased out of the PDP by the APC”.

“We then realised that instead of playing catch up, we must also be on the offensive. Of course, the strategy was to make sure. We all know what the APC is capable of doing. So we decided that we are going to outplay them in their own game. And that is why right now they are busy shouting, throwing tantrums, and we’re not minding them.

“All we’re doing is just to play our own game the way we know it. If you are playing Brazil, you must play a game Brazil will not understand. So we’re going to play APC in a game that they do not understand. You can see that the ADC has caught them unawares. So they are finding every means to make sure that they scatter that party again, which is going to be impossible by the grace of almighty God,” Momodu said.

The Ovation publisher said that the APC plans to steal the country and turn it into a one-party dictatorship, saying,

“What APC is doing to Nigerians now is to hijack the country, turn the country into a one-party dictatorship. And so what do we do? The next is strategy. So what we’re doing is about strategy. And it’s not something you talk about on television. But they can feel it.You can see them. Oh, ADC will never win. Whether we’re going to win or not, let’s wait till 2027.

“Let us run a proper democracy. Not a democracy in which we all report only to one source and one source alone. So it’s not a question of somebody running you out of your own property.”

“Everybody is afraid of Atiku, and that is the reason why I, Dele Momodu, I will support him. The fact that he’s the main issue tells me that there’s something that the ruling government is running away from”, he said.
