According to calculations made by Naija News, N1,272,000 was spent on campaign-related activities out of a total payment of N4,614,507 for the month.
According to NIGERIA, Sowore is the only presidential candidate in the race who has provided a detailed breakdown of how public funds donated to his campaign have been spent.
Meanwhile, Sowore has come out to explain why he would rather be backed by millions of Nigerians than former President Olusegun Obasanjo and former Head of State Gen Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida.
He expressed regret that he would not have been able to accept an endorsement from any of the previous leaders because he regards them as enemies of Nigeria.
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that Sowore took to Twitter to explain that he would rather be endorsed by millions of Nigerians who do not have billions of dollars.
In a video posted on his Twitter account, the AAC flag bearer stated that accepting an endorsement from Obasanjo or Babangida would be unjust to the people of Odi and Zaki Ibiam, as well as slain journalist Dele Giwa.
He advanced that;
Total liberation is the only solution for Nigeria. Of course, I want to win as president of Nigeria but it is not about my ambition but about the people of Nigeria hovering in their pain and anguish in their millions languishing in insecurity, hunger and starvation.
I won’t be able to take the endorsement of Obasanjo and Gen Ibrahim Babangida.
I will rather be endorsed by the very masses who have not billions of naira in their accounts but are in their millions. I would rather be endorsed by the oppressed who beat the brunt of this vulcaniser economy, which has been imposed on our people and has brought untold hardship.
