A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dele Momodu, has urged members of the party to unite and form a strong opposition capable of challenging the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections.
Momodu made the call on Wednesday during an appearance on Morning Show, a programme on Arise Television, where he spoke about the party’s prospects ahead of the polls.
He stressed the urgency of building a cohesive front, noting that time is limited for the opposition to organize effectively.
“My advice to ADC is simple. Time is not on our side. I have attempted to contest twice, first in 2011 and then in 2023, and I know that the head of the elephant is not a child’s thing.
“So if we really want to compete against a candidate who is not going to be a regular candidate, we must come together immediately and take a decision.
“In the ADC, no one can say he owns the party and nobody can make such a claim. ADC will determine who gets the ticket based on strategy. It won’t be at the dictate of one man or woman,” he said.
He emphasized that unity, strategic planning, and collective decision-making will be crucial if the party hopes to mount a serious challenge in the next general election.
