In the face of accusations of irregularities, veteran journalist and African Democratic Congress (ADC) leader Dele Momodu has defended the party’s presidential primary election.
Momodu stated that the procedure was fair and advised disgruntled candidates Rotimi Amaechi and Mohammed Hayatu-Deen to wait until the exercise was finished before voicing concerns.
He stated, “What I find strange is the fact that before the conclusion of the election, two of the contestants did not wait before writing it off. Overnight, I looked through the states that have been already collated and declared, and I could see a fair pattern.
“I plead once again with Rotimi Amaechi and Muhammad Hayatu-Deen to please cool tempers and let the process be concluded before they raise concerns.”
“If they love the party and they love Nigeria, and they truly want to remove Tinubu, then this is not the time for this type of bickering For me, it is very concerning.”
“I never doubted that he’s the biggest fish in the race. Atiku has been running since 1993, when he stepped down for Chief Moshood Abiola in Jos, and he has built this nationwide network that will be difficult for any newcomer to build.”
It’s important for all parties to remain calm and composed during this period. Let’s prioritize constructive dialogue and focus on peaceful solutions rather than escalating tensions. Calm heads and respectful conversations will pave the way for a better and more united future.
