Sowore alleges APC transported supporters from across Nigeria to fill Kaduna Stadium

Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, has accused the All Progressives Congress, APC, of transporting supporters from different parts of Nigeria to fill a stadium during President Bola Tinubu’s campaign rally in Kaduna State, DAILY POST reported.

Sowore made the allegation in a post on X after the rally on Saturday, arguing the crowd should not be interpreted as evidence of nationwide support for Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections. “The @OfficialAPCNg and the Tinubu regime want Nigerians to mistake a ‘packed’ stadium for nationwide support. Ranchers Bees Stadium in Kaduna holds just 5,000 people; even at that, supporters were transported in from across Nigeria to fill it. In 2027, @officialABAT will still lose the election,” he wrote.

At the APC’s campaign flag-off, Tinubu addressed supporters and promised prosperity if re-elected in 2027. Opposition figures question the ruling party’s popularity and Tinubu’s handling of the economy, amid concerns of hunger, poverty and high living costs.
