Dele Momodu Describes Buhari Supporters As ‘Bitter’
Former Presidential candidate and publisher of Ovation magazine, Chief Dele Momodu, has berated online supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari for being ‘bitter‘.
He had been a victim of attacks after publishing an article about the 2019 Presidential ambition of the Senate president, Bukola Saraki.
Democracy is about persuading and even cajoling people to support your candidate… You can't do it by force… I've never asked anyone not to support BUHARI and you can't ask me to retire from my job because you don't want publicity for your opponents…

Momodu compared Buhari’s supporters to those of immediate past president Goodluck Jonathan who he said argued based on facts.
They are not only bitter, they are so demented to think they can force people to follow them into the wilderness… No politician sent me to school. It is my right to interview whosoever I wish and if you don't like my report, get others to do their own favourable reports… https://t.co/XzQbYYhQNM

Momodu tweeted; “The GEJ guys who used to attack us for supporting BUHARI were smarter; they used to argue with number of projects started or completed before abusing us but these ones are so empty… Everybody is a thief except them…”
