Ajayi urged Nigerians, particularly youths and other citizens affected by the prevailing economic challenges to support” the AAC as the party that as the authentic political platform of the oppressed.”

“Nigerians should rise and support the only party of the oppressed, the African Action Congress.

“We believe that a better Nigeria is possible when citizens support a political movement genuinely committed to the people,” he said.
