Treason: Sowore Seeks Apology From FG

Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 general elections has said that he deserves an apology from the Nigerian government for his arrest and detention in 2019.

Recall that in August 2019, Sowore was apprehended and held by Nigeria’s intelligence agency, the Department of State Services (DSS), due to his call for a revolution under then-President Muhammadu Buhari‘s administration.

Although he was eventually released on bail, he was unable to leave the country as per the conditions of his bail.

The government recently dropped Sowore’s case, which had accused him of treason.

Speaking, however, during an interview on Arise Television after the treason charges against him were withdrawn, Sowore, who was asked whether he would demand an apology from the federal government, confidently stated that he shouldn’t have to demand it, but rather, he deserves it from the Nigerian government.
