OSUN 2022; OLUFEMI JOHNSON OF THE AAC IS OKAY

OSUN 2022; OLUFEMI JOHNSON OF THE AAC IS OKAY

OSUN DESERVES A NEW DAWN

We use this opportunity to inform that our candidates for the Governorship and Deputy Governorship offices in the Osun 2022 Elections are:

Olufemi  Eniola JOHNSON (Governorship)

Olugbenga Justus Odunewu (Deputy-Governorship)

Both are the properly elected candidates of the party in the forthcoming elections. The Sogbadero Team will bring a new spring of radical change to the whole of Osun, and save our people from the current fear of voting between the devil and the deep blue sea!

We condole with all Nigerians that are under the scourges of massive insecurities. We call on the Buhari government to stop trading with the lives of Nigerians through its inept, impune, and incompetent rulership of the country.

We believe that Nigerians should obtain their voters cards, engage massively in civil actions and take their destinies into their hands by voting the People’s Candidates and standing against all oppressions!

Another Nigeria is Possible!

Vote for the AAC in Ekiti and Osun 2022

Vote for the AAC in Ekiti and Osun 2022

EKITI AND OSUN PEOPLE SHOULD VOTE THE PEOPLE’S CANDIDATES. 
Ekiti people will be voting once again this Saturday. It is a task that is just onerous in four years. The people are made to vote for their destinies in the next four years, and sadly it has usually been rigged in favour of those who would turn back to be the chief oppressors of the people. But there is always a thousand year for oppression to thrive; the day of freedom would be so eternal!
The African Action Congress (AAC) appeals to Ekiti people never to vote amongst the three arms of the tree of bad governance and maladministration that has actually characterized the history of the legendary most educated people in the whole of Nigeria.  Why we have been turned to a land of wants, hardships, and insecurities cannot be understood if we do not vote out our old rulers. How long shall we continue to queue behind our enemies?
Our party will bring total freedom, digitalised and equitable economy, as well as massively industrialize our wealth of agricultural abundance. We must take our place in education, healthcare, and social welfare.
This is why we put forward two of our comrades as Governorship and Deputy-Governorship Candidates in the June 18th Gubernatorial Elections. Both comrades are :
Pastor Sam Ajeigbe (Governorship)
 and Alhaji Bello Rasaki (Deputy Governorship).
We count on Ekiti people to look beyond the immediate gains being offered by these *Agbalowomeris* and *Alonilowogbas* who continue to spit on the Omoluabi ethics by stealing and destroying our common wealth.

After Court ruling, AAC sets up Task Force to investigate fraudulent activities of impostors and get justice for victims

PRESS STATEMENT

AAC DISCLAIMS MEETINGS NOT SANCTIONED BY LEADERSHIP ORGANS, RECOGNIZED BOTH IN FACT AND IN LAW.

SETS UP TASK FORCE TO INVESTIGATE CORRUPT PRACTICES COMMITTED BY IMPOSTORS SINCE 2019.

It has come to the notice of the National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party that a group of persons unknown to the party are parading themselves as leaders and are currently planning to meet to conduct “primaries”, despite the ruling of the Court confirming the authentic leadership of the party.
We want to inform the public that such gatherings are not authorized by the National Working Committee or any sub-national leadership organ of the party. Even though it is clear that any activity conducted by these impostors is a nullity, we warn these impostors to desist forthwith in their best interests.

The final dates for primaries as communicated to INEC by the NWC, are 7th June, 2022 across respective States and 9th, June 2022 at the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. 
And preparations are in top gear to present the best candidates to vote for, in the general elections, come 2023.

The party leadership has also set up a 5-person RECOVERY COMMITTEE to look into all matters surrounding fraudulent activities, carried out by the impostors and their agents.
Recall that in 2019, our party released a widely publicized disclaimer, which warned members of the public not to have any party dealings with the impostor who was already expelled.

However, in the spirit of justice, we are willing to help unsuspecting members of the public who may have fallen victims to the fraudsters. Anyone with solid evidence of fraudulent activities done in the name of the party should kindly approach the RECOVERY COMMITTEE without any delay.

Our party shall continue to stand by its known principle of justice and fairness and would ensure that justice is served to all, at all times.

Police arrests Sowore’s lawyer over lawsuit

Men of the Nigerian Police Force in Abuja have arrested Comrade Omoyele Sowore’s lawyer, Barrister Marshal Abubakar, of Femi Falana Chambers.

It was earlier reported that Barrister Marshal Abubakar was the lawyer who had sued the Nigerian Police, after the unlawful arrest of Omoyele Sowore, on the order of Ned Nwoko, on  the 24th of February 2022.

Omoyele Sowore had taken to his Facebook page to report the arrest. According to his post, the lawyer was forcefully arrested. His offence as claimed by the Police was that he defended Sowore and embarrassed them, by suing the Force.

BREAKING: Nigeria Police Force has just arrested Marshal Abubakar a lawyer attached to Femi Falana Chambers in Abuja for defending me during my recent spat with the police and so called “Billionairë” Ned Nwoko. Marshal D F Abubakar was traced to his home and forcefully arrested because he was accused of defending me. They claimed that he embarrassed the @police by suing them and Ned Nwoko on my behalf.

This information was made available by Mr. Omoyele Sowore, who took to his Facebook page, to report the attack. “… occupants were heavily assaulted and phones taken away”.Omoyele Sowore

 

“Today again in Abuja, Muhammadu Buhari regime sent assassins and thugs after us on our way to the Court of Appeal, they succeeded in double crossing our rear team, heavily assaulted occupants of the car and took their phones…”

It should be recalled that this isn’t the first time that Sowore and members of the AAC party face sponsored attacks.

 

#ASUUStrike: NANS pledges solidarity.

ASUU STRIKE: NANS MEETS ASUU PLEDGES SOLIDARITY.

National Association of Nigerian Students, (NANS), Southwest( Zone D), has pledged its support for the Association of Staff Union Universities (ASUU), in its ongoing strike action.

The leadership of the zone headed by the Coordinator, Comrade Adegboye Emmanuel Olatunji, popularly known as “Teejay”, made this known in an official Press Release that was made available to the public in the early hours of 22nd of February 2022.

It should be recalled that the National body of the association, led by the National President, Mr. Sunday Asefon, had earlier threatened to mobilize students against ASUU, and to stall the progress of the demands of the Union.

Read below, the Press Statement:

The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS ZONE D) today, the 22nd February 2022 held an all important meeting with the leadership of ASUU LAGOS ZONE, basically over the ongoing one month warning strike embarked upon by its members across the Nation.

After much deliberations and intellectual engagement between both bodies , we assured the union of our solidarity and support in this titanic struggle. A major reason why we have considered to join our lecturers in demanding for their right is significantly the decay in infrastructure and social amenities across our universities thereby making teaching and learning process difficult for both the students and lecturers even as we are not unaware that their children are studying in diaspora.

As the most ideological zone in the apex students governing body NANS , we will mobilize machineries and our foot soldiers in solidarity with ASUU until the federal government meets all their major demands.

It’s a sad development to know that Federal government has not been funding most institutions created, and have turned same to a means of embezzling funds, thereby making most of this universities to extort students due to the retrogressive nature of the Nigerian education sector, leaving school managements with no option than to source for funds by any means which includes charging students high to access the same education they got for free.

It is worthy of note that the agitation and demands of our lecturers include; funding for the revitalization of public universities, earned academic allowances, University Transparency Accountability Solution, and promotion arrears, others are the renegotiation of the 2009 ASUU-FGN Agreement, and the inconsistencies in the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS).

Finally, ASUU LAGOS Zone proposed that the only solution to the ongoing warning strike is amending the present law of university creations, adopting the system that supports that quality payment structure for educational workers, and adopting measures that must not further jeopardize the future of Nigerian Students but rather measures that prove and show the commitment that our leaders truly have our interest at heart.

Viva Aluta!
