The presidential candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN), Oby Ezekwesili, has recommended the inclusion of more speakers in the Presidential Debate, especially Mr. Omoyele Sowore, the Presidential Candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC).
Ezekwesili made this recommendation in a Twitter post where she commended Sowore for encouraging more participation from the youths.
According to her, Sowere’s efforts have brought an opportunity to groom a generation of youths that is conscious about the importance of involvement in national discussions, especially in politics.
I especially want to see a candidate like @YeleSowore whose AAC has been diligent in crisscrossing Universities to awaken our young to engage in our Politics… #PresidentialDebates

He is doing the country a great service because we must have that generation of Nigerians fully understand and embrace Plato’s counsel: “those who think that politics is beneath them shall be ruled by their inferiors”. #PresidentialDebates

Meanwhile, Sowere his party AAC have kicked against their exclusion from the presidential debate organized by the Nigerian Elections Debate Group (NEDG) and the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON).
Sowore alleged that his name was excluded because of fear of him exposing what he knows about the other presidential candidates. Read the report HERE.
