2023: Why Peter Obi Won’t Win South-West – Dele Momodu

By Oladosu Oluwagbenga 

Dele Momodu, a leader in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has ruled out Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, and his chances of winning the South-West Region in the next 2023 presidential election.

In an appearance with Sunrise Daily on Channels Television on Monday, Momodu made this claim.

According to the PDP chieftain, rallies alone don’t win elections.

He said “Rallies alone will not win an election. I have no doubt that Peter Obi is a popular candidate but don’t forget the proximity of the South-East to Delta state. They are almost one and the same.

“We can make all the noise. You saw what happened in the last gubernatorial election in Osun state. There was no party outside those two (PDP and APC) that could make an appreciable impact,” he added.

The PDP’s Director of Strategic Communications, Momodu, remarked that the All Progressives Congress and the PDP will be the only parties competing for the presidency in 2023. (APC).

Momodu said that Lagos State is the traditional home of the APC and its presidential candidate, APC, and claimed that because of the Igbo presence, votes will be split between the ruling party, the main opposition, and the Labour Party.

He said, “By the time you come to Lagos, which is the traditional base of Asiwaju and of APC, you’re going to split into three because of the preponderance of the Igbo community,” he said.

“There would be Asiwaju, followed by Atiku, and followed by Obi because there is a large number of Igbo people there and youth who believe in Obi. And that’s the most cosmopolitan state in Nigeria.

“But the moment you start moving into Ogun State, Oyo State, where PDP is king today, then you go to Osun State.

“In Ogun state, we will compete favourably. It’s going to be between Asiwaju and Atiku; there is no way Obi is going to get 25 percent in Ogun State; he is not going to get it in Oyo State, he’s not going to get it in Osun State,” Momodu added.
