Bashorun Dele Momodu, Director of Strategic Communications for the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, has stated that he prefers to remain in opposition as he has been in the past 40 years.
Momodu passed out the message on Thursday, immediately after the Supreme Court upheld President Tinubu’s election victory.
The media mogul and accomplished journalist noted, however , that whoever from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, wants or wishes to join the ruling government for “patriotic” reasons are free to do so.
In a post shared via his handle, @DeleMomodu, on X (formerly Twitter), he said: “After all electoral processes have been completed and foreclosed, those who want/wish to join the ruling government, for “PATRIOTIC” reasons are welcome to do so, while those who prefer to remain in opposition are also free to exercise their fundamental rights.
“After all, there’s nothing “unpatriotic” about being in credible opposition.
“On a personal note, I humbly prefer to remain in opposition as I have been in the past 40 years… GOD bless the Federal Republic of NIGERIA…”
He further noted that: “The beauty of going to court by aggrieved parties is not always about winning but by deepening our Democratic ideals and enriching our Legal System. What is left now is the academic exercise.
“The appellants have exercised their fundamental human rights and must be congratulated…”
