AAC presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore has declared he will never apologise to President Bola Tinubu for calling him a criminal, insisting Tinubu owes Nigerians an apology instead.
Activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has thrown down the gauntlet — he’s not apologising to President Bola Tinubu, and he never will.
Speaking to journalists on Monday in Abuja, as reported by Daily Post, Sowore said calls for him to say sorry over his “criminal” jab at Tinubu are misplaced, especially when African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar branded him “a forger and drug baron” without facing similar pressure.
“Someone told me that the reason they’re charging me is because I refused to apologise to President Tinubu. For what? Did I apologise to Buhari?” Sowore asked.
He didn’t stop there. According to him, it’s Tinubu who owes Nigerians an apology — for contesting an office Sowore claims he’s not qualified for.
“He’s the one that should be apologizing on a daily basis for presenting himself as a person who is worthy when he knows that he’s not worthy of,” Sowore said.
Turning the spotlight on Atiku, Sowore challenged authorities to act consistently: “They say my crime is that I called him a criminal, Atiku called him a forger and a drug baron yesterday. Let them go and carry Atiku.”
