Sowore wins AAC ticket to battle Tinubu, Atiku, Obi

The Publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore, has again emerged as the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) for the 2023 general election.

Mr. Sowore was unanimously elected without opposition by members of the party on Thursday at its national primary convention that took place at Work and Connect Event Center, in Abuja.

Before his emergence at the convention, Mr Sowore, announced his decision to step down as the AAC chairman, a position he recently earned through a court judgement.

An Appeal Court in Abuja, last Thursday, upheld him as the substantive chairman of the party after several months of legal tussles with the Leonard Ezenwa-led faction of the party.

A Federal High Court in Abuja had earlier approved the suspension and eventual sack of Mr Sowore as the AAC’s national chairman.
