2027 Elections: Atiku’s Fate will be Decided by God, says Momodu

Dele Momodu believes that Atiku Abubakar’s political career in the future will be determined by God and destiny, especially before the 2027 elections.

Atiku, who’s 77 years old, has had six unsuccessful attempts to become President of Nigeria – in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023.

He ran for president in the Social Democratic Party primaries in 1993 but lost to Moshood Abiola and Baba Gana Kingibe.

People are worried the former VP might run again in 2027 with the PDP, even though they’re concerned about his health and fitness.

But in an interview with Channels,, Momodu said that age shouldn’t be the main factor in deciding who gets what political positions.

“What has been the impact of these younger people who said they have been in politics? Go and check their states, what have they done for the amount of money made available to them?

“Age cannot be an automatic qualification or disqualification in politics. Who would have expected a Joe Biden to come after Obama? It is up to God and destiny. I am a child of destiny and that is why I have contentment.

“If Alhaji Atiku decides to run, good luck to him. If he doesn’t want to run, no problem. Why are they afraid of him?” he questioned.

When asked if Atiku would be a problem for Tinubu’s re-election in 2027. He said…

“I am sure they believe so. I know those who believe he is the only one right now. He will be a threat if he is able to galvanise a major political party.”

He said they picked Muhammadu Buhari in 2015 as the APC candidate because they thought he was the only one who could unite the north.

Momodu’s comments came after Fayose told Atiku to give up on running for president because he’s too old.
