The Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has threatened that he would stop any other presidential debates that exclude him from attending.
Newsonline reports that the AAC presidential candidate said the idea of debate organizers to hold presidential debates without him but always for the ‘failed and clueless’ presidential candidates of Labour Party, Peter Obi; All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu; Rabiu Kwankwaso, presidential candidate of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP); and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar will not be tolerated.
Sowore made the statement on Tuesday while reacting to the exclusion of his party from the candidates to attend the 2023 election presidential candidates debate to be organized by Nigeria Election Debate Group (NEDG).
Sowore said, “It has come to our attention that the Nigeria Election Debate Group has excluded us from the series of Presidential Debates to herald 2023 election, as typical, they’ve settled for failed and clueless candidates. We will ensure these fraudulent debates are stopped!”
Recall that Sowore was also denied attendance at the Arise TV Town Hall meeting for presidential candidates which was held on Sunday.
The Nigeria Elections Debate Group (NEDG) is a coalition of Nigerian broadcast organizations, civil society organizations and professional groups that organize presidential and vice-presidential debates for candidates.
