Atiku remains key player in Nigerian politics - Momodu

While speaking on Channels TV's Politics Today on Monday, October 14, Momodu posited that Atiku will remain a key player in shaping Nigeria's political landscape. He said his experience, expertise, and commitment to the country's development make him an indispensable asset.

Atiku, 77, has contested for Nigerian president six times: in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023. In 1993, at the Social Democratic Party primary, he lost to the late Moshood Abiola and Baba Gana Kingibe.

However, Momodu said:

“Age cannot be an automatic qualification or disqualification in politics. Who would have expected Joe Biden to come after Obama? It is up to God and destiny. I am a child of destiny, so I have contentment."
