A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dele Momodu, has expressed confidence that Peter Obi will politically defeat Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo in the 2027 general elections.
Momodu made the remark during an interview on Arise Television on Wednesday, October 14, insisting that Obi remains highly popular in the South-East.
“I can bet my life on it that Peter Obi will humiliate and disgrace Soludo in Anambra State,” he said.
According to Momodu, Obi’s influence in the South-East and parts of the South-South could also pose a major challenge to President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid.
Despite his confidence in Obi’s popularity, Momodu declared his support for former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar in the 2027 presidential race under the ADC, while calling for unity among opposition figures.
His comments come amid growing political disagreements between Obi and Soludo over their positions ahead of the 2027 elections.
