2027: ‘Rejected ballot papers are more popular’ — APC reacts to Sowore’s request to launch campaign at the presidential villa

Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), asked authorities for permission to launch his campaign at the presidential villa. Asked about the request on Channels Television, APC National Secretary Ajibola Basiru called Sowore a “skit maker” and a “comedian,” saying he should win a seat in the House of Assembly before being taken seriously. Basiru also claimed that rejected ballot papers received more votes than Sowore’s party in the 2023 election.
