Dele Momodu Denies Being Anti-Obi, Affirms Support for Former Governor

• Dele Momodu has denied claims that he is against Peter Obi, stating that he has supported him in the past.
• Reacting to criticism on X, Momodu said he can never be anti-Obi and dismissed suggestions of any hostility between Obi and Atiku Abubakar, insisting both politicians treat each other with mutual respect.

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dele Momodu, has denied claims that he is against former presidential candidate Peter Obi.

Momodu made the clarification while reacting to a post on X by a user identified as @Blazeregent. The user accused him of harboring anti-Obi sentiments and questioned his right to criticize others.

The X user wrote: “Purge yourself anti-OBI first. You have no moral right to criticize matters like this.

“If you have the right to be perpetual anti-OBI, so is anyone else to be perpetual anti-ATIKU. Daddy wa, please go and rest.”

The comment was in response to Momodu’s earlier post where he asked a PDP chieftain, Bode George, to purge himself of anti-Atiku sentiments.

Responding to the criticism, Momodu rejected the allegation and reaffirmed his support for Obi.

“I can never be anti-Obi. The first time I supported Obi when Atiku picked him as running mate,” he wrote.

He also dismissed suggestions of any rift between Obi and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.

“I’m not aware they are enemies. They always treat each other with mutual respect in private and public,” Momodu added.
