Dele Momodu, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC), has revealed the reasons for his departure from the Labour Party to join another political party.
Dele Momodu explained that he initially belonged to the Labour Party before switching to the National Conscience Party (NCP), then eventually finding a home in the All Progressives Congress (APC) before settling with the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
During an interview on Arise Television, Dele Momodu said;
There is nothing wrong… Anybody who knows me knows I am a democrat. I believe in freedom of speech, freedom of association and even freedom of movement. So you can move to wherever you like, but you must be able to defend your action,” he said.
once moved from Labour Party to National Consicence Party. What happened? I was a fledgling presidential candidate. And when I felt a roadblock, I reached a dead end. I had to consult my people, where do we go? Let’s look for a party that is similar in ideology to the one we are leaving. That is why we opted for the National Consicence Party at the time. Then I contested and had about 26,000 votes nationwide,” he disclosed.
Then we learned a lesson that it would be difficult for any fringe political party to win a presidential election. You need platforms, you need so many things to be able to achieve your dream,” he stated.
