Ovation International publisher, Dele Momodu, has claimed that the 2027 presidential election will be tough for President Bola Tinubu.
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain stated this during an interview on Nevon Media with journalist Oseni Rufai on Friday.
He expressed optimism that the ADC’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, would emerge victorious.
According to him, Atiku could defeat both Tinubu and Nigeria Democratic Congress candidate, Peter Obi, if he secures strong support in the North while remaining competitive in the South.
“As I predicted, Atiku will win the majority of the North, and if he is able to compete favourably in the South, it will be over for President Tinubu and Peter Obi,” he said.
“Atiku will secure at least 25% of the votes in 26 states while also dominating the North, which is where the bulk of the votes are,” he added.
Momodu also referenced Nigeria’s constitutional requirements for winning the presidency, noting that a candidate must secure the highest number of total votes as well as at least 25% of votes in two-thirds of the states.
