Dele Momodu Declares 2027 a Tinubu-Atiku Showdown, Dismisses Peter Obi
Ovation Magazine publisher Dele Momodu predicts that the 2027 presidential race will be a straight contest between President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, with little room for Peter Obi. In a post titled “Time for National Reconciliation, Re-Orientation & Reconstruction,” he argued that the current landscape is a two-horse race. He acknowledged the possibility of a third-force movement but believes it will lack the firepower to unseat the leading contenders. Momodu urged the African Democratic Congress to position itself as a unifying bridge, blending veteran politicians with technocrats. He stressed that rising ethnic and religious tensions must be managed to protect national cohesion. He called on political actors to revive issue-based politics and uphold the values of Nigeria’s founding fathers, warning that neglecting these principles could deepen existing divisions.
