Dele Momodu, a prominent figure in the African Democratic Congress, has emphasized the need to rescue Nigeria from authoritarian rule. In a recent interview on Channels Television’s ‘The Morning Brief’, Momodu discussed the upcoming 2027 general elections in Nigeria, highlighting the importance of saving the country from a one-man dictatorship.
Momodu stated that some individuals prioritize personal financial gain over the country’s well-being, but he believes that this approach is misguided. He noted that if his goal was to accumulate wealth through politics, he would be aligned with the current administration, led by President Bola Tinubu. However, Momodu’s focus is on the country’s recovery, likening Nigeria’s situation to a patient in need of medical attention.
According to Momodu, the country requires a rescue effort to address its current challenges before pursuing development projects. He emphasized the need for a collective effort to ensure Nigeria’s recovery, drawing an analogy with a medical team working to save a patient. This approach, he believes, is essential for the country’s progress and development.
The 2027 general elections are expected to be a crucial turning point for Nigeria, with various political parties and candidates vying for power. Momodu’s comments come at a time when the country is grappling with numerous challenges, including economic, social, and political issues. As the electoral process unfolds, Nigerians will be watching closely to see how the different parties and candidates address these concerns and propose solutions for the country’s recovery and growth.
In the context of Nigeria’s political landscape, Momodu’s remarks underscore the importance of prioritizing the country’s interests over personal ambitions. As the elections approach, it remains to be seen how the various stakeholders will respond to the challenges facing Nigeria and work towards creating a more stable and prosperous future for its citizens. The outcome of the 2027 elections will likely have significant implications for the country’s development trajectory and its position on the global stage.
