The Digest:
Veteran journalist and politician Dele Momodu has stated that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been hijacked by agents of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and is now effectively in an “Intensive Care Unit.” According to an interview on Channels Television, Momodu explained that this perception led to his resignation from the PDP and subsequent move to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Key Points:
- Momodu claimed APC agents have infiltrated and weakened the PDP from within.
- He resigned from the PDP, citing internal sabotage and a lack of credible opposition direction.
- The ADC is positioned as a coalition effort to offer a viable alternative to the APC.
- Momodu emphasized honorable political conduct, contrasting his exit with others who remain while “working for APC.”
- He described the PDP as being at a “dead end” and used as a “cadaver room” by political opportunists.
- His move reflects broader realignments within Nigerian opposition politics ahead of future elections.
- The statement underscores ongoing tensions and ideological fragmentation within major political parties.
