A prominent chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Chief Dele Momodu, has revealed that numerous members of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, are secretly lamenting the state of affairs under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Momodu, who spoke on Monday during an interactive X Space session tagged “Avrilsspace: The Electoral Mathematics for 2027,” expressed grave concerns about the trajectory of governance under the Tinubu-led APC government.
The ADC chieftain painted a picture of widespread disillusionment within the ruling party, claiming that many party faithful who publicly display loyalty are privately expressing deep dissatisfaction with the current administration.
According to Momodu: “I believe that an average Nigerian must be worried about the direction that APC and its leadership is leading us.
“They have a lot of their cronies who will decide for us. I know that even the cronies who are behind the scene, the majority of my friends by nature, so it’s not just about being a member or not being a member.
“The truth is when you engage them behind the scenes, they will weep at you that they are not happy. The same way a lot of people in Lagos will tell you that Tinubu is Alpha and Omega in Lagos, but when you engage them behind the scenes, what they tell you is different.
“So a lot of so-called fanatics who say your mandate, which I found all the time, when you engage them behind the scenes, the story is different. And it’s been like that with most leaders, not just here but elsewhere.
“When the leader is in power, people live on the hope that ‘something might fall in my own way somewhere along the line’.”
