YPP's Agada Opposes Sowore's Campaign Use of Aso Rock

Dr Peter Agada, the presidential candidate for the Young Progressives Party, cautioned Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate for the African Action Congress, against using Aso Rock for campaign purposes. Agada stated that the Presidential Villa is a high-security facility designated for government activities, not political events.
He expressed concern over the trend of politicians treating the Villa as a venue for political relevance, urging candidates to showcase their governance capabilities through their current businesses and residences instead. Agada's comments were made during a media parley in Abuja, following Sowore's request to President Bola Tinubu for permission to inaugurate the AAC's Presidential Campaign Council at the Villa on November 11.
Agada highlighted the resurgence of Ebola and Nigeria's security challenges as reasons for keeping the Villa reserved for official government functions. He asserted that a true presidential candidate should demonstrate their current professional engagements rather than relying on the Villa for political aspirations.
