Human rights activist and presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has criticized the Labour Party, describing it as a “short-term renter” in Nigeria’s political space.
Speaking during a media chat in Abuja, Sowore argued that the Labour Party lacks the ideological foundation and structural depth required to lead Nigeria forward.
“The Labour Party is not here to stay. It’s a short renter in Nigeria’s political arena, not a serious platform for real transformation,” he said.
Sowore accused the party of riding on temporary public sentiment without offering any long-term solutions to Nigeria’s problems, particularly in governance, security, and economic reform.

His remarks have stirred debate online, with many Nigerians expressing divergent views on social media. While some agree with Sowore’s blunt assessment, others defend the Labour Party’s rising popularity among youth and first-time voters.
The Labour Party has yet to respond officially to Sowore’s comments.
