Nigeria's AAC requests Aso Rock venue for 5,000-member campaign council launch

The African Action Congress, led by Omoyele Sowore, has formally requested the use of the Presidential Villa and state logistics for a 5,000-member campaign council event, citing equal access to public institutions. The request is likely to be denied, but it underscores opposition efforts to challenge the ruling party's dominance ahead of elections. The outcome is uncertain and may signal the government's tolerance for political opposition.
