The African Action Congress, AAC, presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has pledged to introduce a N500,000 monthly minimum wage for Nigerian workers if elected President.

Speaking in an interview with The Independent, Sowore equally stated that his administration would provide 24-hour electricity, and make education free and accessible at all levels.

The activist also promised to construct one million public mixed-income homes and reform tenancy laws to reduce the burden of advance rent payments.


He was outlining the AAC’s agenda for the 2027 elections.

“Our agenda is revolutionary justice and equal rights. Nigeria is enormously wealthy, yet Nigerians have been deliberately impoverished through corruption, incompetence and an economic system designed to reward a tiny political and business elite. We intend to change that fundamentally.

“We are proposing a N500,000 monthly living minimum wage because Nigerian workers cannot continue receiving starvation wages while senators, governors and political appointees consume millions every month.

“We will deliver 24-hour electricity because no serious industrial economy can operate permanently on generators. Education will be free and accessible at all levels, and no Nigerian child should be denied education because his or her parents are poor,” he said.

Story for the gods.

There is no difference between Peter obi, Sowore, Atiku and the packaged fraud. All they do is to promise heaven and earth. Sadly, that is the fantasy that impress overgrown puppies and the more reason they keep polluting the social media with crippled accolades for their fraudulent messiah.

I added the chief fraud officer to complete the list

Ndlea need to step up their games

Let try SOWORE

Teenaira:
All the so called presidential candidates are just not serious minded. They can't visualize Nigeria's problems.

The starting point is that most government workers do not even do anything. The second thing is that there are lots of ghost workers. Third is if you just keep increasing salaries, you are promoting inflation, moreso when the increments are not backed by increased productivity. Fourth they are not planning to increase government revenue only to increase expenditure. Fifth, Even now government still implement budget deficits mainly through borrowings and so on and so forth.

Honestly

They're not even thinking about any form of productivity

Alawadakerikeri.....I know Sowore is a clown like Obi but he is intellectually sound unlike Obi.Sowore should tell us how he wants to actualize his plans.

Another big, fat, and desperateliar.

Tell me anything you use in Nigeria that is not directly or indirectly funded from those you call imperialists? - A slave always thinks his master is benevolent and always grateful for the food scraps that falls off master's dining table or whatever leftovers the master decides to feed him.

Tell me anything you are happily using to live in this world that is not made by them - Again, slaves hardly think for themselves, not because they can't in most cases but because they've been conditioned never to think.

Food? - No, slaves never think that his ancestors had food in abundance, they survived. If those ancestors didn't survive on food, slave master wouldn't have strong and healthy slaves to capture.

Clothes? - Slave's ancestors were actually ahead of their time and made beautifully woven indigenous fabrics with glorifying colours. Slave has been conditioned to think everything comes from the master.

TV & Phone? - Slave may not know that majority of master's technologies are actually ideas from other places and resources stolen from slave. Slave may actually need to save for a whole year or more before slave can afford the most basic TV brand new. Slave may need to save for 5 years or sell both kidneys to be able to walk into a phone shop and purchase master's made phone.

Plane? - There are chances that slave only see these flying objects in movies, social media and never been near one.

A bird born in a cage will always think that flying in the wild is abnormal.

Enjoy your cornmeal and salted pork. - (I guess that's even a luxury for slaves nowadays)

Oga all this story in English .. I thought thats a sign of slavery?. When will you stop using their products and inventions and begin to use yours? Or at least stop using their language?

Atiku gave the promise of 1M Naira minimum wage and I still won’t vote for him. He should try again after Tinubu’s second tenure.

Joker ni bọbọ yí

Oh I use their technologies, I speak and write in their language (even though comprehension in that language is a bit of a problem for me) now I've lost my brain. I just have to show gratitude, be grateful to master for this beautiful superior language and remarkable technologies that I get the rare privilege to use and be subservient till death.

Some are born slaves, will die a slave.

We're not the same.

vote sowore

Trying to blow balloons with fart..

See the type of irrelevant nonsense a grown man is spewing out

Fa fa faaaaaaa...... FOUL!!!!

christejames:
Even a Hot man on top woman no fit make this kind promise 😂 😂 😂

..a Hot man on top woman can even promise her private jet sef..konji get power.oo

Honestly, minimum wage in Nigeria should be around ₦500k considering the prevailing economic conditions. Civil servants are really suffering this time due to rising cost of living!

Imagine having your salary exhausted just within one week of receiving it. Then you have no choice than keep borrowing till the month ends. It's not easy at all! I don't know if those at the helm of affairs in this country even think about the plight of civil servants at all!

₦500,000 that will look like ₦5,000 in the market!
When will Nigerians understand basic monetary economics?

All of them will not smell that Office.

Ha! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Whenever it comes to workers' welfare that's when your ilks remember about basic monetary economics! All the other indices that have contributed to inflation should be checked, not worker's salaries! This is because Nigerian workers are among the least paid workers all around the world!

Nigerians don't even think big and believe their country can get better, and that's why they keep settling for the worst leaders.

Countries that are not up to us in any standards have 24hours electricity, that's not even thinking big, it's a default any nation should have in 2026.

This one turn naira to Iranian ryal be that

It is election period, and all the presidential candidates are making promises. When they are finally elected, the promises turn to hardship. We are yet to recover from apc promises since 2023.

MEGAWATCH:
It's means you will kill people like Tinubu, Shetima, Orji Kalu, Wike, Atiku, Obasanjo, etc if you win.

Because these and many more are the people eating fat from the poverty condition of the Nigerian people.



🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

INCLUDING Peter Obi, nairaland don sabi who i dey tallk about dem help me change the name

At what point will you be free from them and speak only in your own language, have your technologies, build your own planes and cars and make world class products the world can buy

Nigerians are among the least paid because they believed increasing minimum wages will make them rich yet they keep getting poorer after every increment.

Sowore's equivalents in the UK or the USA are people in parties like the Green parites of the USA, or similar small left leaning parties. These type of candidates never win.

The elite in the UK and US are similar to the elite in Nigeria. The only reason why those countries work is because they are reliant on tax revenue and industrial production to work, so everything has to work, including light, water and housing, or the profits of the elite would fall.

Nigeria is the classinc oil dependent country. It is not dependent on industries, it is dependent on oil. And oil money will always flow whether people live in finery or rags. Hence no concern.

Also, most people in the UK and US pay tax, and are incentivised to hold their elite to ransom. Nigeria where most people are okay with the current situation and where most don't pay tax but wait for oil money to fall from heaven? LOL.




Well, most of the youngies are sitting down and being lazy. Also, most youngies don't join a party and work their way up the ranks.

We have some youngies in politics and even in office. They are the guys who were carrying the oldies bags and cleaning their houses and running erands for them while their mates were sitting down in viewing centers and watching Man U play Chelsea for the 100th time.

NO one dashes you power. Macron is president of France because he joined a party as a young university student and was running around for the elders whilehis age mates were busy chasing babes, and drinking a lot of booze...then most of them graduated, got married, and got busy building a family with the babe they managed to catch..lol. A man building a family and a financial nest has no time to do politics...unless the wife is understanding, same thing if the genders are reversed. ANd 90% of the time they ain't.

A nairalander announced he was running for councilor on this site some years ago. Most people mocked him. Tomorrow when you see the guy as a minister you go shout corruption and cheating. When he started small, and worked his way up.

Even tinubu, once upon a time, was carrying the bags of the big men. Ditto GEJ, Yaradua, etc.

My dear, how can the younger generation of Nigerians work up to the heights of the big political parties from where they can be nominated presidential candidate?

The oldies will never allow them reach the high position to be elected presidential candidate.

Through ordinary spechees made by Barack Obama in some places, he came from nowhere and clinched the topmost position in the Democratic Party where Bill Clinton and wife held the strings.
In Nigeria, such speeches of Obama cannot catapult a young person to the heights of any bigger political party.

What happened to Peter Obi last presidential election will happen to any younger Nigerian who is not from the big political parties.
