Momodu said the North would likely rally behind Atiku in the same way it supported the late former President Muhammadu Buhari

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dele Momodu, has said former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has the capacity to defeat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

Momodu said the North would likely rally behind Atiku in the same way it supported the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.

He made the remarks while speaking on Sunday Politics on Channels Television.

According to him, Atiku has been preparing for the presidency for decades, noting that his political journey dates back to 1993 when he stepped down for the late MKO Abiola.

Momodu said, “On who will be able to defeat Tinubu, I have always said it and it’s not a secret that today after Buhari in the North, they have a queuing system from analysis.

“From Atiku, even those who did not like Atiku before, he is beginning to smell like roses to them because the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

“So Atiku, if he runs, he has prepared forever just like Donald Trump prepared forever.

“They said Trump is old and like joke he is doing his second term now.

“Atiku started from 1993 when he stepped down for MKO Abiola and that’s where my fascination for him started from and he’s there waiting.

“His people will support him and defend their votes.

“Rigging is impossible when you talk about the overwhelming majority.”
