Chief Propagandist Of Buhari’s Disaster!’ — Acapella Fires Shots At Sowore In Viral Rant

Nigerian comedian Acapella has slammed Omoyele Sowore, the 2023 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), stating that he lacks the moral authority to speak on corruption in Nigeria. This comes after Sowore took to social media to accuse various political figures, including President Bola Tinubu, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and Labour Party’s Peter Obi, of being complicit in corruption and bad governance.

According to Naija News, Sowore’s post on X (formerly Twitter) also targeted former Senate President David Mark, ex-Justice Minister Abubakar Malami, and former Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai, accusing them of enabling systemic corruption, human rights abuses, and economic decline. In his words:

“I did not join Bola Ahmed Tinubu in distributing heroin and cocaine in Chicago. I did not join Atiku Abubakar in looting the Nigerian Customs dry. I did not join Peter Obi at Tin Can Ports while he cleared goods for Sani Abacha when Abacha was dismantling Nigeria brick by brick.”

Reacting via his X handle, Acapella challenged Sowore’s claims, especially regarding Peter Obi. He clarified that Obi was never an appointee of the Abacha government but merely assisted with resolving port congestion issues at the time.

“First off, Peter never worked for the Abacha government, you lying, unrepentant wannabe hero. Obi only helped decongest the Tin Can Port when businessmen raised concerns. He wasn’t paid and wasn’t an official appointee,” Acapella stated.

The comedian further reminded Sowore of his involvement in supporting former President Muhammadu Buhari’s rise to power in 2015.

“Let’s not forget—you were the chief propagandist that helped bring Buhari, that disaster, into power. That alone disqualifies you from pointing fingers about who is corrupt or not.”
