Activist and publisher, Omoyele Sowore has declared that he will not join the opposition coalition.
Sowore, who was the African Action Congress, AAC, presidential candidate in 2023, accused the key drivers of the coalition of committing one offence or the other.
He bashed former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party, former Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami and several others of committing one wrongdoing or the other in the past.
A human rights lawyer, Deji Adeyanju had in a post on Wednesday morning, called on Sowore to join forces with the opposition figures to wrestle power from the All Progressives Congress in 2027.
However, in a statement posted on his Facebook page, Sowore declared that he will not join the coalition, labelling the opposition figures as corrupt leaders.
Sowore said he won't join the movement because he "did not join Atiku Abubakar in looting the Nigerian Customs dry."
He accused former president of the Senate, David Mark of stealing "funds meant to fix our telephones", stressing that the former lawmaker also "helped to crush our democratic hopes on June 12".
Sowore alleged that former minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, who is also a member of the coalition, violated human rights and looted "the treasury under Muhammadu Buhari’s watch".
He accused former governor of Kaduna State Nasir El-Rufai of orchestrating the alleged killing of Shiites and "fueling genocide in the Southern part of the state."
On Peter Obi, Sowore said he didn't join the former presidential candidate of Labour Party at the "Tin Can Ports while he cleared goods for Sani Abacha when the same Abacha that was dismantling Nigeria brick by brick".
Several notable opposition figures met in Abuja on Wednesday when they finalized the adoption of the African Democratic Congress as a platform to sack APC in 2027.
