‘Mandela, Trump Campaigned at Advanced Age’ – Dele Momodu Rebukes Critics of Atiku
Dele Momodu has challenged calls for Atiku Abubakar to step aside ahead of the 2027 race. Critics say Atiku will be 80 by Election Day and too old to lead. In a viral clip, activist Zekeri Idris Jnr urged Atiku’s allies to push him out in favour of younger candidates like Peter Obi or Kwankwaso. Idris argued that Nigeria needs a new generation of leadership. Momodu dismissed this line of attack as mere distraction. He urged Nigerians to focus on holding the ruling party accountable rather than criticising Atiku’s age.
