Sowore Challenges Oshiomhole: “You Were Never A True Activist

Published

on

Omoyele Sowore, Nigerian human rights activist and leader of the #RevolutionNow movement, has criticized Adams Oshiomhole, former Edo State governor and ex-president of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), accusing him of betraying the cause of true activism. Sowore made these allegations during a recent podcast with Glitch Africa Studios, posted on YouTube.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

According to Sowore, Oshiomhole, who is often celebrated as a labour leader, was never truly an activist. He claimed that Oshiomhole played a key role in Nigeria’s first fuel price hike in 1992, alongside former military leader Ibrahim Babangida, which he argues shows Oshiomhole’s lack of genuine commitment to the people.

Sowore pointed out that Oshiomhole’s actions have consistently contradicted the principles of activism, and he accused the former NLC president of prioritizing alliances with government figures over the welfare of ordinary Nigerians. He said, “Oshiomhole was never an activist. In 1992, he, along with Pascal Bafial, struck a deal with Babangida to increase the fuel price and supported it.”

Sowore also recalled how, during Obasanjo’s presidency, Oshiomhole allegedly met with the former leader to negotiate fuel price hikes, saying, “We will fight a little, and you’ll bring it back down. Everyone is happy. That’s what Oshiomhole was doing.”

He further questioned why Oshiomhole was never arrested or detained, despite being involved in several controversial actions, suggesting that his detention, if it had ever occurred, may have been orchestrated.

Sowore contrasted Oshiomhole with other labour leaders like Frank Kokori, who he believes played a more genuine role in the fight for Nigeria’s democracy.
