Presidential Candidate of the African Action Congress Omoyele Sowore has asked all Nigerians to collectively vote out leaders occupying elective leaders who perpetually enslave their followers by not paying salaries, building hospitals or equipping schools for children.
Why You Should Vote African Action Congress (AAC) – SPICER-HEAT
African Action Congress 10 Agenda Items that form the framework of her manifesto is spread to cover all the important areas of our collective national life.
The understanding that our individual fates and possibilities are tied to the quality of the society we build together is pivotal to the design and urgency of our party and her engagements with the people.
All around us are broken dreams. All around us are numerous issues hampering the development of our nation. All around us are people dying over treatable health issues. All around us are visions and lives being terminated through avoidable circumstances.
The urgency that birthed the party is that the issues must be solved now. Time continue to compound the situations and has made our country to be more abortive of dreams and human lives.
Troubling is the fact that Nigeria has moved to be the world’s poverty capital and has lost millions of jobs in her current economic stagnation. The climbing figures of unemployment and underemployment of about four out of ten individuals deepen the security odds.
This should be interpreted as a system lethal to dreams and human survival. A holistic approach is required to tackle the hydra-headed problem and that is the poise of our Manifesto.
The three main pillars of our manifesto
Our Economic Strategic Focus
More expansive of what our government will deliver is the SPICER – HEAT.
‘We have not tackled the most important reasons why people take religion and radicalise it – social injustice, poverty, illiteracy…’
‘Our governments have just been talking about building roads… we need much more infrastructure than that’

Yesterday, the list of pro tem officers of the party was released. We congratulate all of the men and women who were named as the inaugural leaders of our party.
These men and women will have the singular task of driving the planning and implementation of the State Congresses and National Convention over the next few weeks. Given the scarcity of time and resources, they will require every support and cooperation that they can get. I implore all members of the #TakeItBack Movement and our party to provide them with all necessary support.
These are by definition, temporary positions. After the presidential primaries are completed at the national convention on October 6th, 2018 all accredited party members will have an opportunity to contest for any positions they have an interest in contesting for in the party National Executive Committee (NEC).
TakeItBack- Action!
AAC – Action!!
