My Soul Has Left PDP!” — Dele Momodu Cries Out Over Growing Sabotage In Party Ranks

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart, Dele Momodu, has expressed deep disillusionment with the party, revealing that while he may still be physically present, his spirit has already departed.

Momodu made this revelation on Tuesday during an interview on the Broadcasting Corporation of Oyo State (BCOS).

Lamenting the persistent divisions plaguing the PDP, he noted that the internal strife is undermining the party’s ability to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

“My soul has left the PDP; only my body remains,” he said.

According to Momodu, the PDP could have been a formidable force against the APC in the 2027 elections if it were united.
However, he decried the influence of various internal and external forces working against the party’s cohesion.

His comments come at a time when the PDP is witnessing a wave of defections to the APC.
Momodu accused the ruling party of deliberately attempting to weaken the opposition through strategic defections.

Meanwhile, former Ogun State PDP governorship aspirant, Segun Sowunmi, has expressed openness to working with President Bola Tinubu.
During an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, June 9, 2025, Sowunmi—an ally of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar—said he would not hesitate to resign from the PDP if offered an official role by President Tinubu.

“There’s never been a doubt that I can work with him… If I’m going to work with the president, I’ll leave the PDP,” he stated.

Recalling a previous conversation with President Tinubu, Sowunmi described him as direct and open-minded, noting that he appreciated honesty over sycophancy in political discourse.
