A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Dele Momodu, has warned the party leadership to enforce internal discipline to prevent the emerging opposition coalition from descending into chaos ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Momodu's caution follows growing agitation from supporters and allies of former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, who are calling on the ADC to hand him its 2027 presidential ticket. Among those backing the demand are Prof. Pat Utomi and activist Aisha Yesufu, both of whom have publicly issued strong positions over Obi's political future within the coalition.
While Utomi has threatened to walk away if Obi ends up deputising anyone, Yesufu has vowed to oppose him should he emerge as a vice-presidential candidate rather than the presidential flagbearer.
