Dele Momodu, a prominent member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), has suggested that PDP governors who oppose the coalition of opposition parties might be secretly supporting President Bola Tinubu.
Following their meeting in Ibadan on Monday, the PDP governors declared they would not pursue a merger or coalition with any other political party before the 2027 elections.
However, in an interview on Arise Television on Monday, Momodu argued that no single major opposition party could independently defeat Tinubu in 2027.
The publisher of Ovation Magazine advised the opposition parties to unify and employ the same strategies that the All Progressives Congress (APC) used to win the 2015 election.

“Opposition leaders are very determined this time around to work together. The truth of the matter is Atiku cannot do it alone, Peter Obi cannot do it alone, and Rabiu Kwankwanso cannot do it alone.
“So, naturally, they have to find a way to pay APC back in its own coins by trying to get at least a chunk of all the parties, including the APC, to come together.
“If our governors are saying no, we don’t want to go into a coalition, then it means that surreptitiously you are probably working for a Tinubu presidency.
“People must learn from history; a bully only respects a bully, but all of us are already behaving like chickens. Anything – people panic, saying they are going to use the EFCC or arrest them.
“Any governor or any senator or house member who may be tempted to just jump ship may jump to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean,” he said.
