The African Action Congress (AAC) has inaugurated its Presidential Campaign Council for the 2027 election, focusing on mobilizing support for its presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, and his running mate, Haruna Magashi. The inauguration was announced in a statement signed by Acting National Chairman Samuel Ajeigbe and National Secretary Oshiokhue Phillip Ikpeminoghena.

The council, led by Abdullahi Usman as Director-General, will coordinate campaign activities across Nigeria's 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. It includes various roles such as deputies for Strategy and Political Affairs, and Diaspora and Resource Mobilisation, with Juwon Sanyaolu serving as Campaign Council Secretary.

The AAC has established 10 national directorates to oversee different aspects of the campaign, including grassroots mobilization and digital media. The campaign will leverage the SOWORENOW application for digital organization and aims to reach rural communities as well as urban areas.

The AAC emphasizes that the 2027 election is about changing Nigeria's political direction.
