2027: I will run for presidency – Sowore declares

Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has declared interest to run for presidency under the African Action Congress, AAC.

Sowore made this declaration on Friday while responding to questions in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.

When asked if he would be the sole candidate of the party, Sowore said, “Let the party decide.

“I plan to contest the 2027 presidency. We have not finally submitted list of online registered members. And that’s what the court judgment said.

“So, if you have submitted now, the court says you can reopen your portal and start again. We never stopped anyway.

“Our party started online registration in 2018 when no party was doing it. In 2022, they asked everybody to submit their register. We were the only party that submitted a complete party register to INEC.”
