SOWORE RETURNS TO NIGERIA TODAY — THE #SOWORE2027 CAMPAIGN HITS THE ROAD! After more than 20 months of forced separation from his family following arrests, detentions, travel restrictions and the seizure of his international passport by Nigerian security agencies, AAC presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore returns to Nigeria TODAY, September 27, 2026. His brief trip to the United States was more than a family reunion. Sowore met and engaged Nigerians across the diaspora, took the revolutionary #Sowore2027 message directly to them, joined a major international solidarity march for Palestine in New York, and intensified the campaign for DIASPORA VOTING. His commitment is clear: Nigerians abroad must have the right to vote, and a Sowore administration will move immediately to implement diaspora voting upon taking office in 2027. Sowore arrives at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos before proceeding to Abuja, where he will continue to face the cybercrime case instituted against him by the State Security Service (SSS) in 2025. Then, the campaign hits the road. From Lagos to Kano. From Sokoto to Port Harcourt. From Maiduguri to Enugu. From villages to cities, campuses to markets, factories to farms — we are taking the revolutionary message directly to the Nigerian people. Workers. Students. Women. Young people. Farmers. Traders. Professionals. The unemployed and the forgotten. 2027 must be a decisive break from the OLD ORDER. We are building a revolutionary new order founded on EQUAL RIGHTS, JUSTICE, PEACE, SECURITY, PROGRESS AND ECONOMIC PROSPERITY FOR ALL. Sowore is back. The struggle continues. The campaign continues. The movement continues. Nigeria must be taken back from those who ruined it. AAC! TAKE IT BACK! ACTION! NO GOING BACK! #Sowore2027 #AAC #TakeItBack #EqualRights #Justice

RT @TIBmovement: TIB Niger Demands Justice, Condemns Deaths of 37 Miners in NSCDC Custody READ MORE: takeitbackglobal.com/2026/09… t.co/…

AFRICAN ACTION CONGRESS (AAC) PRESS STATEMENT 20 September 2026 AAC DEMANDS JUSTICE FOR 37 MINERS WHO DIED IN NSCDC CUSTODY, REJECTS ‘COMMITTEE CULTURE’ OF GOVERNMENT COVER-UPS The African Action Congress (AAC) is alarmed by the reported death of 37 suspected illegal miners while in the custody of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Niger State. This has made the Federal Government to suspend 20 NSCDC officers and constitute a 10-member committee to investigate the circumstances surrounding the deaths. While AAC welcomes any genuine effort to establish the truth, Nigerians have heard this song before: constitute a committee, generate public attention, produce a report, and allow the matter to quietly disappear without prosecution or meaningful accountability. For decades, whenever allegations of grave abuses are connected to powerful institutions or politically sensitive actors, investigative panels have too often become academic exercises rather than pathways to justice. Committees must not become smokescreens for crimes or mechanisms for buying time until public outrage dies down. This concern becomes even more serious when viewed against Nigeria's history of deaths in detention. In 2016, Amnesty International reported that at least 149 people, including 11 children under six, died following detention at Giwa Barracks military detention facility in Maiduguri between January and April 2016, amid allegations of starvation, dehydration, disease and other forms of ill-treatment. Ten years later, Nigerians are once again asking the same fundamental question: how many people must die in government custody before those responsible are held accountable? AAC therefore demands that the investigation into the Niger State deaths must be truly independent, transparent and prosecution-oriented, not another committee whose report ends up gathering dust. The government must: 1. Establish the precise circumstances and causes of every death through credible forensic and medical investigations. 2. Identify every officer whose actions, negligence or omission contributed to the deaths. 3. Prosecute anyone found criminally responsible, regardless of rank or position. 4. Provide justice and appropriate redress to the families of the deceased. 5. Reopen unresolved cases of deaths and abuse in detention facilities where previous investigations failed to deliver accountability. AAC insists that suspension is not justice, and a committee is not accountability. Enough of the committees without consequences. Enough of the investigations without prosecution. Nigerians deserve justice. AAC remains committed to fighting for the human, social and economic rights of Nigerians, a struggle that can quickly become Total Liberation for our nation, when Nigerians mobilize massively around the AAC Party.

The people earning a MAXIMUM WAGE of ₦30 MILLION every month are the loudest voices telling us that our ₦500,000 minimum living wage prescription for Nigerian workers is “too much.” Even more disturbing, some of the poorest among us are on social media defending this cruel inequality, claiming that paying workers a decent wage will cause inflation. ₦30 million for them is acceptable, but ₦500,000 for a Nigerian worker is inflationary? WICKEDNESS HAS BECOME AN ECONOMIC POLICY! #Sowore2027 #TakeItBack

Different season let’s go!! Sowore 2027

A LONG READ, IT IS WORTH IT! Building a Modern, Free, Inclusive, and Future-Ready Education System - #Sowore2027 Education Manifesto Education is the greatest investment any nation can make in its future. It is the foundation of economic prosperity, scientific advancement, democratic participation, national security, and social justice. A #Sowore2027 administration will place education at the centre of national development by guaranteeing every Nigerian access to free, high-quality education that nurtures knowledge, creativity, innovation, critical thinking, and productive citizenship. Our objective is not merely to prepare students to pass examinations but to develop leaders, scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, artists, skilled professionals, and responsible citizens capable of transforming Nigeria into one of the world’s most advanced societies. Public education will be free at every level, from early childhood through university. No Nigerian child or adult will be denied the opportunity to learn because of poverty. Rather than burdening young people with exploitative student loans, students in public tertiary institutions will receive semester education grants to support their academic and living expenses. Investing directly in students is an investment in the nation’s future, and no society has ever developed by making education inaccessible to its citizens. My administration will restructure Nigeria’s education system to make it simpler, more efficient, and better aligned with global best practices. We will restore a 5-year primary school system followed by five years of uninterrupted secondary education. University education will generally consist of four-year bachelor’s degree programmes, except where internationally recognized professional standards require longer periods of study. To expand access to higher education, every Local Government Area will receive federal support to establish a Community College offering two-year associate degree programmes that provide affordable pathways into employment, entrepreneurship, vocational training, and university education. We believe that learning begins long before primary school. Universal early childhood education will become an integral part of Nigeria’s public education system through well-equipped nursery and pre-primary schools staffed by professionally trained educators. Every Nigerian child deserves the strongest possible educational foundation regardless of family income or geographic location. Education in the twenty-first century must no longer be confined to the classroom alone. Our administration will establish an integrated system of physical and virtual learning that allows every learner access to quality education, irrespective of where they live. Every public educational institution will be connected to high-speed broadband internet and equipped with digital classrooms, virtual laboratories, cloud-based learning platforms, and online libraries. Through technology, students in the most remote communities will have access to educational opportunities comparable to those available anywhere in the world. Artificial intelligence and digital technology will become central components of learning rather than privileges available only to a few. AI-assisted personalized learning will help students progress at their own pace while enabling teachers to identify learning gaps and provide targeted support. Coding, digital literacy, robotics, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, data science, and computational thinking will become core elements of the national curriculum beginning in primary school. Every graduate should leave school equipped with the skills required to succeed in today’s economy while preparing for the technologies of tomorrow. Community Colleges will become pillars of local development throughout Nigeria. Every Local Government Area will operate a Community College offering associate degrees, technical certifications, adult education, continuing education, entrepreneurship training, digital skills programmes, and workforce development initiatives tailored to the needs of local communities. These institutions will expand access to higher education while supporting local economic growth and reducing educational inequality between urban and rural Nigeria. Technical and vocational education will enjoy the same status, funding, and public respect as traditional university education. Nigeria cannot industrialize without highly skilled technicians, engineers, artisans, and innovators. Training programmes will focus on renewable energy, manufacturing, construction, agriculture, aviation, maritime industries, healthcare technologies, software engineering, artificial intelligence, and the creative industries. Our objective is to produce graduates who can create jobs, build industries, and compete successfully in global markets. The long-standing and discriminatory divide between universities and polytechnics will finally end. All polytechnics and monotechnics will be upgraded into universities with specialized mandates in engineering, applied sciences, technology, industrial innovation, entrepreneurship, and research. This reform will remove artificial barriers to educational advancement while strengthening Nigeria’s capacity for technological development. No education system can rise above the quality of its teachers. Our administration will place teachers at the centre of national development by establishing Teachers’ Institutes dedicated to continuous professional development. Every teacher, regardless of previous qualifications, will undergo periodic advanced training in modern pedagogy, educational technology, digital learning, artificial intelligence, curriculum development, classroom leadership, and contemporary teaching methods. Teachers will also receive significantly improved salaries, better housing support, expanded research opportunities, and greater professional recognition. Universities must remain centres of independent thought rather than instruments of political control. Our administration will guarantee genuine academic, financial, and administrative autonomy for universities while maintaining strong systems of public accountability. Vice-Chancellors and governing councils will be selected through transparent, democratic, and merit-based processes free from partisan political interference. Academic freedom will be fully protected. Students and lecturers will enjoy the constitutional rights to research, teach, publish, organize, criticize public policy, and participate peacefully in democratic life without intimidation from government or security agencies. Nigerian campuses will once again become centres of intellectual inquiry, innovation, and democratic debate. Independent student unionism will also be fully restored and protected. Students have the democratic right to organize themselves, defend their welfare, advocate for reforms, and participate in institutional governance. No student will face victimization, suspension, expulsion, or prosecution for engaging in legitimate and peaceful activism. Nigeria must become a producer of knowledge rather than merely a consumer of discoveries made elsewhere. Our administration will dramatically increase funding for research and innovation across universities and research institutes. Priority investment will support research in medicine, renewable energy, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, agriculture, climate science, manufacturing, transportation, defence technology, public health, and other fields capable of driving national development. Research grants will be awarded transparently on the basis of merit, measurable impact, and relevance to Nigeria’s developmental needs. To support learning and innovation nationwide, we will establish a National Education and Innovation Cloud providing every student and teacher with free access to digital libraries, academic journals, AI learning assistants, virtual laboratories, educational software, research databases, and open educational resources. Access to knowledge should never depend on geography or personal wealth. Our administration will undertake the largest investment in educational infrastructure in Nigeria’s history. Every school will be equipped with modern classrooms, functional laboratories, libraries, renewable electricity, clean water, reliable internet connectivity, sports facilities, creative arts centres, and infrastructure accessible to persons living with disabilities. University campuses will feature AI-powered smart hostels with modern security systems, efficient energy management, digital student services, and technology-enabled learning environments. No child should attempt to learn while hungry. We will establish a nationwide school nutrition programme providing healthy daily meals for pupils in public primary and Secondary schools using food sourced from Nigerian farmers. Student welfare will also include accessible healthcare, counseling services, mental health support, menstrual hygiene programs, and comprehensive wellbeing initiatives designed to improve educational outcomes. Our education system will be fully inclusive. Children and adults living with disabilities will receive equal educational opportunities through accessible infrastructure, assistive technologies, Braille and sign-language instruction, specialized teaching personnel, and individualized learning support. Every Nigerian deserves an education regardless of physical or cognitive ability. Education must develop the whole person. Our schools will place renewed emphasis on sports, music, literature, theatre, visual arts, film, and cultural education. Modern sports facilities and creative arts centres will become standard features of educational institutions, enabling young Nigerians to develop their talents while strengthening national identity and cultural confidence. Nigeria is blessed with one of Africa’s largest communities of scholars and professionals abroad. Through a National Academic Return Programme, we will encourage Nigerian academics, scientists, researchers, innovators, and professionals in the diaspora to contribute to national development by offering competitive remuneration, research funding, modern laboratories, housing support, and flexible academic appointments. Their expertise will strengthen teaching, research, mentorship, and international collaboration across Nigerian institutions. Learning should continue throughout life. Every Nigerian will have opportunities to acquire new knowledge and skills through flexible online learning platforms, community colleges, vocational education centres, continuing education programmes, and lifelong learning initiatives designed to keep pace with changing technologies and labour markets. Education will be recognized and protected as a fundamental constitutional right. Every level of government will have a legal obligation to provide quality education to every Nigerian without discrimination based on income, gender, disability, ethnicity, religion, or place of residence. Finally, our commitment to education will be matched by our commitment to good governance. A #Sowore2027 administration will allocate 30 percent of the national budget to education, treating it as a strategic investment rather than a recurring expense. Every allocation will be subject to complete transparency through open budgeting, digital procurement, independent audits, and public reporting. Corruption in education financing will not be tolerated. Funding for schools, universities, and research institutions will be distributed transparently through Blockchain Technology and linked to measurable improvements in learning, research, innovation, and national development. We will establish a National Research and Innovation Fund to support groundbreaking discoveries and ensure that publicly funded research delivers practical solutions to Nigeria’s economic, technological, environmental, and social challenges. This is our vision: an education system that is free, inclusive, technology-driven, research-intensive, democratic, globally competitive, and firmly rooted in the belief that every Nigerian deserves the opportunity to develop their full potential. Our goal is not simply to produce graduates, but to produce thinkers, innovators, creators, scientists, artists, entrepreneurs, skilled workers, and leaders who will build a prosperous, just, technologically advanced, and truly liberated Nigeria.
