Sowore Remains Our chairman And Presidential Candidate – Party

The African Action Congress on Thursday stated that Omoyele Sowore remained the National Chairman and a presidential aspirant of the party for the 2023 elections, aso Naija gathered.

The party also clamped down a report by a group of people claiming to be its members, who stated that Sowore was expelled from the party in 2019.

The earlier report by the self-acclaimed National Publicity Secretary, Sylvester Cletus, claimed that omoyele was removed for violating the party’s constitution, and misappropriation of funds, amongst other offences.

But in a press release by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Femi Adeyeye, made available on Thursday, it said the earlier report was purported by “rogue elements” who aimed to “smear the image of the party and its leaders.”

The party claimed the report accusing Sowore of misconduct was false, criminal, and sponsored by an expelled member of the party, Leonard Nweze.

To set the record straight, the AAC noted that Sowore never misused any party funds but gave a statement of account concerning the expenditure of campaign funds.

The party further justified omoyele Sowore’s position as both leader of the AAC and its presidential candidate and as such, he remains the party aspirants.
