Media mogul and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Dele Momodu has firmly ruled out any possibility of joining the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Momodu cited what he termed as authoritarianism and a lack of internal democracy within the ruling party as his reason.

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television on Wednesday, the former presidential aspirant dismissed growing speculation about his potential defection to the APC, even as his own party, the PDP, grapples with internal crises.

“I definitely won’t join the APC. That one is out of the question,” Momodu stated unequivocally. “If I wanted to join the APC, I wouldn’t be talking to you the way I am this morning.”

The Ovation Magazine publisher and two-time presidential hopeful took a swipe at the APC’s leadership style, alleging that the party runs an autocratic system that contradicts his democratic values.

“I cannot sit in a room where one man will dictate to able-bodied adults who have worked all their lives and say that he is the lord of the manor,” he said, in a thinly veiled reference to the influence of key power brokers within the ruling party.

Momodu’s remarks came amid ongoing factional tensions and leadership struggles within the PDP, prompting speculation that some party stalwarts may be seeking greener pastures elsewhere.

However, Momodu made it clear that dissatisfaction with his party does not translate into support for the APC.

Earlier on Tuesday, he admitted that his commitment to the PDP was under strain, saying, “My body is in the PDP, but my soul has left.”
