Less than 12 days to the 2023 general elections, about 12 gubernatorial candidates of the African Action Congress, AAC, have disowned the party’s presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, alleging that he is undemocratic and inexperienced to lead in the capacity of president of Nigeria.

Robert who spoke on behalf of the other candidates during a press briefing, on Monday, in Abuja, explained that Omoyele had shown himself undemocratic who doubles as the presidential candidate, and the chairman of the party, thereby disallowing opportunities for inclusivity.

He said: “As gubernatorial candidates and committed members of the African Action Congress party, in the past six months, we have come to see and have expressed reservations about the readiness, leadership and attitude of our presidential candidate, Omoleye Sowore, who also doubles as the Chairman of our party.

“As a presidential candidate, against our advice of inclusiveness in party/team building and consolidating statewide structures, it is apparent he is not in the race and now clear his basic political inexperience and counterproductive divide-and-rule leadership style is NOT what Nigeria and Nigerians need at this moment of national healing nor will it lead us and indeed the party towards any socio-political or electoral win.

“We therefore have decided not to back Omoleye Sowore or support his candidacy for president.”

While denouncing support for Sowore, Robert, however said that in no time, a new preferred presidential candidate would be announced.
