AAC writes Tinubu, seeks approval to host presidential campaign council inauguration at Aso Rock
According to the party, its request is based on similar arrangements reportedly made for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The African Action Congress (AAC) has written to President Bola Tinubu, requesting permission to inaugurate its presidential campaign council at the seat of power in Abuja on November 11.
The party’s National Secretary, Oshiokhue Ikpeminoghena, disclosed this in a statement issued on Wednesday.
The AAC also requested food, drinks and other forms of support for 5,000 participants expected to attend the event from within Nigeria and abroad.
According to the party, its request is based on similar arrangements reportedly made for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“On behalf of the African Action Congress (AAC), I respectfully write to request approval to hold the inauguration ceremony of our Presidential Campaign Council on the 11th of November 2026 at the Presidential Villa, Aso Rock, Abuja, in preparation for the 2027 general elections,” the statement reads.
“In the spirit of multiparty democracy, political inclusiveness, and equal treatment of political parties, we also request the provision of food, drinks, and other logistical support for 5,000 participants from home and abroad at the event, consistent with the arrangements reportedly extended to the All Progressives Congress (APC) for a similar political engagement.”
The party said approving the request would demonstrate the presidency’s commitment to fairness, equal access and non-partisan use of public institutions.
It also said it is hopeful that Tinubu would approve the request and provide details of the procedures and conditions for holding the event.
The presidential candidate of the AAC is Omoyele Sowore, a prominent critic of Tinubu’s government.
