Presidential candidate of the African Action Alliance (AAC), Omoyele Sowore says the Labour Party is an orphanage for Internally Displaced Politicians from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He said this at a press conference where he announced that the AAC has allied with the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Sowore believes that the alliance would allow for a shared political ideology, historical ties, and a common vision for the well-being of Nigerians.
According to him, all major parties contesting in the 2023 elections are the same as they all are formed by politicians who deflected from the PDP.

He said, “We formed this alliance for one purpose: to overthrow and take down the evil system of operations in Nigeria that is fast sinking the ship of Nigeria. Both Parties, AAC, and PRP have several similarities beginning from the formation to the founding fathers.
“Recall that AAC was founded by young radical elements in Nigeria a few years ago even when it was later hijacked by some reactionary elements. I must also remind you that PRP suffered the same fate, which has led to what many people described as a faction. However, there is no faction in PRO. The people at this meeting are the authentic people of Aminu Kano that formed the party decades ago. The other ones (faction) can best be described as an overflow of the All Progressives Congress or the Peoples Democratic Party.
“However, this is the best and purest alliance of two revolutionary political parties in Nigeria, and I strongly maintained my position that other political parties contesting in the 2023 election are not different from each other. The PDP is not different from the APC nor is APC different from PDP. APC was formed by people who defected from the PDP shortly before the 2015 elections for the sole purpose of winning elections.
“In the build-up to the coming elections, there are four political parties that seem to be louder in the media, namely, Labour Party, New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), APC, and PDP. One thing is common with them. All characters therein are originally from PDP. The Case of the Labour Party is worst because it is the orphanage home for Internally Displaced Politicians, IDPs.”
