Omoyele Sowore, a former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), has revealed why he cannot form a coalition with Peter Obi, the Labour Party 2023 presidential candidate.
He claimed Obi is no different from other corrupt politicians, emphasizing that he is simply better at “packaging.”
Sowore stated he had been running for president long before Obi rose to public prominence.
Featuring in a recent episode of the Honest Bunch Podcast, he said, “Before you discovered Peter Obi, I was already running for President. All these shouts about Peter Obi… He just knows how to package. Anyone can do it.

“If I join [form a coalition with] Peter Obi, I will be going against what I have always stood for. Which is that, I will never support a Nigerian leader who has held any political office before whom I consider non-performing.
“It’s the same reason I would never have joined hands with Atiku. And the Peter Obi you are talking about was Vice Presidential candidate to Atiku when I was presidential candidate in 2019.
“So, what are we talking about? There is no lesser evil in my book. If you are evil, you are evil. If you are good, you are good. I have a general disdain for non-performance.”
