2027: ‘It’ll be over for Tinubu’ – Dele Momodu predicts election winner [VIDEO]

African Democratic Congress (ADC) leader Dele Momodu has forecasted a difficult 2027 presidential election for President Bola Tinubu.

During an interview on Nevon Media with Oseni Rufai on Friday, Momodu expressed confidence that the ADC’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar, will emerge victorious.

He said that if Atiku can maintain his support in the southern states while dominating the north, he would easily defeat both Tinubu and Peter Obi.

“As I predicted, Atiku will win the majority of the North, and if he is able to compete favorably in the South, it will be over for President Tinubu and Peter Obi,” he said.

“Atiku will secure at least 25 % of the votes in 26 states while also dominating the North, which is where the bulk of the votes are,” Momodu added.

He noted that the Nigerian constitution requires a presidential candidate to obtain the highest total number of votes and at least 25 % of the votes in two‑thirds of the states.

Momodu believes Atiku is on track to meet this requirement by locking down the high‑voting northern states.

His prediction comes as the key political rivals prepare to face off again. In the 2023 election, Tinubu won the presidency with roughly 37 % of the vote, relying on a strong base in the South‑West and a steady spread of votes across the country.
