The African Democratic Congress has formally welcomed the publisher of Ovation Magazine and former presidential aspirant, Dele Momodu, into its fold.
PUNCH Online had earlier reported that Momodu officially joined the opposition coalition on Thursday, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
During his declaration in Benin City, the Edo State capital, Momodu pledged to collaborate with like-minded Nigerians to rescue and reposition the country.
The Ovation publisher explained that his decision to align with the coalition was not motivated by personal political ambition but by a commitment to national renewal.
He noted that he has no intention of contesting for any elective office, adding that his focus is on contributing to efforts aimed at correcting the nation’s challenges.
Reacting to Momodu’s defection in a post shared on its verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Friday, the ADC expressed satisfaction with Momodu’s decision.
The party said, “We are delighted to officially welcome the Publisher of Ovation International and former presidential candidate of the National Conscience Party, Dele Momodu, to the ADC. You made the right choice.”
