Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress’ (AAC) 2023 presidential candidate, has said that he will not join the coalition of opposition leaders currently building in front of the general elections in 2027, calling its members “corrupt and complicit in Nigeria’s ruin.”
In a sharply worded Facebook post on Wednesday, Sowore reportedly expressed his stance against calls for unity among opposition leaders after they adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as their political platform.
Earlier Wednesday, human rights attorney Deji Adeyanju urged Sowore to unite with other opposition figures in the effort to topple President Bola Tinubu’s All Progressives Congress (APC) government.
However, Sowore quickly hung up the phone, stating that he could not stand with those who had supposedly betrayed the nation and betrayed the confidence of the people.
“I did not join Bola Ahmed Tinubu in distributing heroin and cocaine in Chicago,” the former presidential candidate claimed in a Facebook post.
“I didn’t participate in Atiku Abubakar’s heist of Nigerian Customs.”
