Sowore launches campaign manifesto, promises to tackle corruption

 

Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, says his party will flush out corrupt politicians if elected in 2023.

 

Sowore made the statement on Saturday during the launch of the party’s manifesto for his presidential campaign.

 

The publisher of Sahara Reporters described Kano as the People’s Assembly, thus the reason for launching his campaign in the state.

 

“We are very confident that with the people’s support and partnership, the AAC shall build for the Nigerian people, a nation they will be very proud of,” Sowore told NAN.

 

 “We will traverse the length and breadth of our country, inspiring and uniting our people to flush out corrupt politicians and redeem the country.”

 

He assured Nigerians that his party would modify public education and increase investment in critical infrastructure, especially energy.

 

Commenting on the redesigning of the naira notes, Sowore said the move will further worsen the nation’s economy.

 

 “The economy is in shambles with the mix of high unemployment, low wages, crippling inflation, and meagre social investments thus driving people further into poverty,” he said.

 

Sowore further said that he and Garba Magashi, his running mate, have drawn up revolutionary programmes to secure the country.
