Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action
Congress (AAC), has condemned the level of poverty in the country.
Speaking on Friday in Benin at the party’s campaign flag-off
ceremony ahead of the Edo state governorship election, Sowore said President
Bola Tinubu has failed to make a meaningful impact in the development of the country.
He said almost a year into Tinubu’s administration, people
are grappling with poverty and pain owing to policies introduced by the new
administration in the country.
“The leadership style of President Tinubu is bad and the
poverty that the people are experiencing is alarming,” Sowore said.
“Tinubu has failed to
make a meaningful impact in the development and economic growth of the country
almost a year into his administration while people are grappling with poverty
and pain brought upon them by policies that have further impoverished them.”
He added that the country would recover if the people were
given the power to manage their affairs.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had
earlier scheduled September 21 for the governorship election in Edo.
