Tinubu Govt Using Buhari-Era Strategy To Silence Me – Sowore

Human rights activist and African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has dismissed fresh forgery allegations against him, describing them as a recycled tactic to silence and blackmail him.

Speaking on Channels TV Hard Copy, Sowore said the accusations mirror the Buhari administration’s 2019 strategy, when he was arrested and charged with terrorism financing, money laundering, and cybercrime claims later dropped in court.

He also faulted a recent court order directing banks to furnish the Inspector-General of Police with his account details, calling it a violation of his privacy and fundamental rights.

Sowore maintained that the forgery allegations lack basis, arguing that the supposed evidence presented by the police does not amount to forgery. He accused the government of repeatedly framing charges without proof to keep him in court battles.

The activist linked the renewed case to his protests for better welfare for retired police officers and his opposition to the extension of IGP Kayode Egbetokun’s tenure, which he insists is illegal.
