Former Governor of Edo State, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, has described one of the organizers of the #EndBadGovernance protest, Omoyele Sowore, as a defeated politician.
Naija News reports that Oshiomhole, during an interview on Arise TV, said Sowore, who is still nursing his defeat from the last presidential election, can not speak for Nigerians.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain stated that he does not recognise anyone among those who called themselves organisers of the nationwide protest, which has entered its eighth day.
The lawmaker also said there was no need for the protest, adding that President Bola Tinubu was doing everything within his power to solve the economic challenges facing Nigeria.
He said, “I listen to all those names you mentioned and the others, I don’t know them. Which Nigerian does not know Wole Soyinka? Who didn’t know Gani Fawehinmi of blessed memory? Who doesn’t know Femi Falana?
“I know Sowore as a defeated presidential candidate. And when you’re defeated in an election, you wait for the man who won the election.
“Give him time. Sowore cannot be seen as speaking for the people because he is still nursing the pain of his defeat.
“So, that’s not the guy to speak for people in Kano, for those people who throw bombs in Maiduguri or those people who hijack cars in.”
