A prominent leader within the African Democratic Congress, Dele Momodu, has officially cleared the air regarding his stance on the presidential ambition of Peter Obi ahead of the 2027 general elections. Speaking through his social media handle on Sunday, the veteran journalist and politician addressed growing misconceptions about his political leanings. He emphasized that his commentary on the current political landscape should not be misconstrued as an organized campaign against any specific candidate.
According to a report by Daily Post on January 4, 2026, while responding to a heated exchange on the social media platform X, Momodu stated, “there is nowhere I told you not to route for OBI, he is not my enemy, but it is my right to state the facts and historical evidence that are available to me.” This clarification came after a supporter questioned his stance regarding the age of potential presidential candidates.
The veteran media mogul insisted that his personal political choices belong to him alone, and he urged Nigerians to avoid the culture of trading insults over different opinions. He noted that in the high stakes game of political numbers, every participant remains very important to the democratic process. Momodu believes that historical facts must be laid bare for the public to decide, regardless of the emotional attachments many voters have toward their favorites.
Recent shifts in the political landscape have seen Peter Obi move to the African Democratic Congress, a development that has sent shockwaves through the major parties. This migration has created a new wave of discourse among the youth who are eager for a change in leadership. However, Momodu maintains that presenting historical evidence is a duty he owes to the nation, ensuring that voters are well informed before they head to polls.
As the 2027 election cycle begins to take a definite shape, the interactions between influential figures like Momodu and the voting public will likely intensify. The insistence on facts over raw emotions remains a recurring theme in his public communication strategy. For now, the party finds itself at the center of a national conversation as key players navigate the complex alliances and rivalries that define the journey toward the next presidency.
