Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress (AAC) candidate in the recently ended presidential election, has reacted as his rival in the race, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), led a protest on Monday over the results of the February 25th polls.

According to news reports, Atiku led top PDP chieftains and supporters to a demonstration at the headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) today to voice displeasure with the announcement of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) president-elect, Bola Tinubu.

Tinubu was named the winner of the February 25th presidential election by INEC last week.
A few hours later, the commission granted a Certificate of Return to the former Governor of Lagos State.

Sowore reacted to the news by commending the PDP camp for their actions. He saw activism as being no different from politics.

“After all, activism is not different from politics. Good to see @atiku @OfficialPDPNig fight for electoral justice; everyone must engage in civil disobedience to extinguish the monumental injustice perpetrated by @inecnigeria, except that for us revolutionaries, we don’t get the privilege to have the Department of State Services and police bodyguards to protect us during protests like this, they usually unleash the police, soldiers and the DSS on us with absolute cruelty,” Sowore wrote on Twitter.
