In an attempt to divert attention from the incessant attacks against us, which we believe have been carried out with the assistance of the @OfficialDSSNG, the DSS lead prosecutor, A.T. Kehinde, SAN, has written to the judge handling my case, claiming without presenting evidence that some of our supporters banged on his car. For starters, the Federal High Court has CCTV cameras. Why didn't he attach footage of the alleged incident to his letter? Why not release the footage so the public can identify those responsible and establish whether they were genuinely our supporters or individuals acting on behalf of his DSS clients in a possible false-flag operation? A.T. Kehinde, SAN, has been subpoenaed to testify in court tomorrow. Instead of preparing to give his testimony under oath, he is busy engaging in extralegal gymnastics, writing letters to the judge and making allegations without presenting supporting evidence. He should save his explanations for the witness box, where he can be questioned under oath. #RevolutionNow

BREAKING: FRESH REVELATIONS LINK PRESIDENT TINUBU’S AIDE SUNDAY ASEFON AND Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu's IN-LAW, EKITI-BORN FHA BOSS OYETUNDE OJO TO THE ALLEGED ASSASSINATION PLOT AGAINST ME IN ADO-EKITI! Fresh information from our sources points to Asefon Sunday Dayo, former NANS President and SSA to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on "Student Engagement," as one of the alleged ringleaders of the October 30, 2026, assassination attempt against me and members of my team in Ado-Ekiti. Our sources identify Asefon’s bodyguard and enforcer, Ayodeji Akintade Ifeoluwa, as one of those deployed to lead the attack (he was the one in green polo wielding and using machette on our team members) alongside Sola Adenijo, aka Solar, whom we have identified as a principal coordinator of the armed assault. We have also received information implicating "Hon" Oyetunde Oladimeji Ojo, Managing Director of the Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Tinubu’s son-in-law and husband of Folashade Tinubu-Ojo. Our sources claim he mobilized Sola Adenijo aka "Solar" for the operation. Asefon was in Ekiti for a #CityBoys Movement event on Thursday, October 29. According to information available to us, DSS operatives and Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s Chief Security Officer, CSP Ayodele Akinlua, alerted individuals connected to the event about my presence. We are informed that a prolonged meeting followed, during which the attack was planned. The following morning, CSP Akinlua called Moyinoluwa Olowoyo Gigabytes Nation, popularly known as Gigabytes, an #EndSARS activist and member of the Take It Back (TIB) Movement, warning him that my safety could not be guaranteed if I participated in political activities in Ekiti State. Our sources further claim that discussions were held with "Hon" Makinde Araoye, organizer of the @ikogosimarathon Marathon, concerning the cancellation of my participation in Saturday’s race. We have received information suggesting that the announcement was deliberately delayed in anticipation of the planned attack against me. Hon Makinde Araoye announced soon as the attack took place, stating I was banned from participating in Ikogosi marathon According to the information we have gathered, the initial plan was to attack us at MIDAS 90.5 FM station in Ado-Ekiti, where I granted a one-hour interview between 12 noon and 1 p.m. on Friday, October 30. However, we left the radio station before the group reportedly assembling at Fajuyi Park could complete its mobilization. Our sources indicate that individuals on motorcycles subsequently followed our team, tracking our movements with the aid of another person until armed attackers descended on us at Tawakalitu Restaurant in Dalimore area of Ado-Ekiti, where we were brutally assaulted. We have also received disturbing accounts alleging that DSS operatives and police personnel accompanied or assisted the attackers. These claims emanated from eyewitnesses. the police CP in Ekiti State Command, Michael Falade later claimed it was an "altercation" and that those of us attacked only sustained minor injuries. Remember, Asefon Sunday Dayo previously threatened to attack me when he was NANS President. We survived the brutal attack, and the revolutionary struggle must continue. #RevolutionNow #TinubuMustGo

This is DG of lawlessness at @OfficialDSSNG, Tosin Ajayi, sponsoring these hustlers; it is now @UghegbeLemmy turn, he is here to claim he could kill me, if he wanted. The message was meant for no one other than me, and after his failed assassination attempts against me in Port Harcourt, several at the Federal High Court in Abuja, and now in Ekiti, he's sending his minions to state the obvious. Tosin Ajayi will not get away with all this. He knows! #RevolutionNow

This is yet another footage of the brutal attack on me and members of our team in Ado-Ekiti. How anyone could watch this violence and dismiss it as a mere “altercation” is beyond comprehension. We maintain that this was a coordinated assassination attempt. #TinubuMustGo

Attack On Sowore in Ekiti: Who's Behind It? Join me live on SaharaTV!

They didn’t start planning this attack on Friday! This fellow, Asiwaju Kasali Oludlfemi, an @OfficialAPCNg operative, began issuing threats against me since 2025 long before the latest brutal attack on me and members of my team in Ado-Ekiti on Friday, October 30, 2026. As soon as we were attacked, he was openly celebrating the violence unleashed against us. The second slide shows his latest threat against me!

BREAKING: MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH AS CHILLING ATTACK VIDEO REVEALS FACES OF ATTACKERS IN BRUTAL ASSAULT ON @SOWORE, TEAM IN ADO-EKITI Fresh video evidence has emerged showing the faces of individuals identified as participants in the October 30, 2026, armed attack on leaders and me, as well as members of the African Action Congress (AAC) and members of his team in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, who assaulted one of our team members. The breakthrough comes amid disturbing revelations that CCTV recordings from Tawakalitu Restaurant, where the attack occurred, have reportedly been completely erased after police officers and the DSS took possession of the equipment and took it to Government House only to return it this evening without any images. Today, I contacted the Ekiti State Commissioner of Police, Michael Falade; the Ado-Ekiti Central Police Station DPO, Mustapha Mohammed; and the state's Rapid Response Squad (RRS) Commander to demand updates on the investigation. Shockingly, the officers claimed there was "no complainant" because I had not submitted a written statement, despite police rescuing the victims, taking them to their hospital, arresting suspects, and recovering weapons, stolen phones, and other devices. I questioned the officers about stolen phones electronically traced to the Governor's Lodge and the missing CCTV recordings; they denied knowledge and abruptly ended their conversations. In another development, Tawakalitu Restaurant management reportedly confirmed that a DPO returned the CCTV equipment, but the recordings had been completely wiped. The management refused to identify the officer responsible for returning the equipment. This is an indication of a coordinated cover-up by the @PoliceNG hierarchy in Ekiti State However, the newly recovered video provides crucial leads in identifying individuals involved in the attack. Their identities and roles need a credible independent body to investigate, and we call for the removal of the CP and other officers involved in the cover-up. SEE BELOW THE BREAKTHROUGH VIDEO SHOWING THE FACES OF ATTACKERS IN ACTION. #RevolutionNow

BREAKING: PHONE ROBBED FROM SOWORE’S TEAM DURING BRUTAL ATTACK TRACED TO GOVERNOR’S LODGE IN ADO-EKITI! One of the phones stolen from a member of our team during Friday’s brutal attack in Ado-Ekiti has now been traced to the Governor’s Lodge in Ekiti State. The @PoliceNG and @OfficialDSSNG must immediately release the CCTV footage from Tawakalitu Restaurant to the public. You cannot bury the evidence.

This morning, we tracked two of the devices violently robbed from members of our team during the brutal attack in Ado-Ekiti on Friday, October 30, 2026, and the locations are deeply disturbing. One phone was traced to a location directly opposite the office of the Executive Governor of Ekiti State, while our other devices were located opposite Fajuyi Park in Ado-Ekiti. Meanwhile, the Nigeria Police Force @PoliceNG and the @OfficialDSSNG have yet to release the CCTV footage seized from Tawakalitu Restaurant, where we were attacked. RELEASE THE CCTV FOOTAGE NOW!

Check out this article: How My Team And I Were Attacked In Ekiti – Sowore - independent.ng/how-my-team-a…

EKITI STATE GOVERNMENT’S SHAMELESS DENIAL CANNOT CONCEAL ITS COMPLICITY IN THE BRUTAL ATTACK ON @SOWORE AND HIS TEAM RESPONSE TO THE OCTOBER 31, 2026 PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY THE EKITI STATE GOVERNMENT Hours before more than 100 armed thugs descended on members of my team and me in Ado-Ekiti on Friday, October 30, 2026, the Chief Security Officer (CSO) to Governor @biodunaoyebanji, CSP Ayodele Akinlua, had already issued a chilling warning about my safety. At approximately 7:30 a.m. that morning, CSP Akinlua called Moyinoluwa Olowoyo, popularly known as Gigabytes, and warned that my safety could not be guaranteed if I proceeded with political activities in Ekiti State. Hours later, we were violently attacked, injured, and robbed by armed thugs in broad daylight. That warning was no coincidence. It was the clearest pointer to who knew the attack was coming, who authorized it, and who protected those responsible. Let the Ekiti State Government begin its explanation from there! Why was the Governor’s Chief Security Officer warning that my safety could not be guaranteed hours before armed thugs descended on us? Who authorized that call? What did the Governor know, and when did he know it? The statement issued by Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s Chief Press Secretary, Olayinka Oyebode, reeks of vitriol, political animosity, contempt, and barely concealed hostility toward my person. Rather than condemn an outrageous act of political violence, express concern for those injured or demand justice, the government insulted the victims, questioned my motives, and trivialized a coordinated armed attack as an ordinary altercation. That extraordinary display of hostility lends further credence to our allegation that the governors using elements within the Ekiti State Government were complicit in the attack. The government describes me as an "inconsequential presidential candidate." If I am so inconsequential, why was the Governor’s security apparatus monitoring my movements? Why did DSS operatives disrupt my political meeting at a restaurant? Why was a warning issued concerning my safety? And why were more than 100 armed thugs subsequently mobilized to descend on us? More importantly, the Ekiti State Government has failed to address its relationship with Sola Adenijo, popularly known as Solar, whom we identify as the leader of the armed gang that attacked us. We maintain that Sola Adenijo, aka Solar, is on the payroll of the Ekiti State Government. Remarkably, the government’s statement does not deny any relationship with him, nor does it explain the nature of its dealings with this individual. We challenge Governor Oyebanji and his government to publicly disclose whether Sola Adeniji receives payments, contracts, appointments, stipends, or any other financial benefits from the state government, directly or indirectly. A blanket denial of involvement is no substitute for answering these specific questions. We also demand the immediate preservation, recovery, and public release of the CCTV footage of the attack. The Ekiti State Government should direct the appropriate authorities to secure the complete CCTV recordings from the restaurant and surrounding premises, preserve the original files, and release the relevant footage to the public without alteration, subject to protecting innocent bystanders. Let Nigerians see what happened. Let the footage establish whether this was the so-called "altercation" being promoted by the Police and the State Government or a coordinated attack by armed political thugs sponsored by the governor, who already stated publicly that anyone who opposes the re-election of Tinubu is an enemy. We have already exposed the plot to remove CCTV recordings by security operatives. The government must explain who took possession of those recordings, where they are presently being kept, and why they have not been made public. The government cannot claim to welcome an investigation while ignoring the most important potential evidence. It is equally disgraceful that the government seeks refuge in its supposed reputation for peaceful elections. A government's self-proclaimed peaceful reputation does not absolve it of responsibility for violence committed within its territory, particularly where its own security officials issued warnings before the attack. The facts are that members of my team and I were violently assaulted, injured, and robbed. Security personnel attached to us were also attacked and disarmed. These are serious acts of criminal violence, not a public relations inconvenience to be dismissed with insults. Furthermore, the despicable press statement issued by @mkdAraoye, the lead organizer of @ikogosimarathon, banning @sowore, all significantly tells of official connivance by the state govt, the lead sponsor of @ikogosimarathon Governor Oyebanji's government must answer the questions surrounding the advance warning, the involvement of security agencies, its relationship with Sola Adenijo, aka Solar, and the whereabouts of the CCTV evidence. The Ekiti State Government cannot investigate itself through press releases, insult the victims into silence, or manufacture an alternative account of an attack that left people injured. We demand an independent, transparent investigation into the roles of the attackers, their sponsors, the Governor’s security personnel, the DSS, and any police and DSS officers implicated in the events of October 30, 2026. The government's denials will be tested against the evidence, including eyewitness accounts, communications records, financial records, and CCTV footage. We will not be intimidated, and I will not allow the Ekiti State Government to turn victims of political violence into suspects simply because we refuse to surrender our constitutional rights. Governor Oyebanji, release the CCTV footage. Disclose your government's relationship with Sola Adenijo, aka Solar. Explain the warning from your Chief Security Officer. Political violence will not stop our struggle for a just, democratic, and liberated Nigeria. #RevolutionNow #Sowore2027

There is something deeply troubling about the incompetence of Nigerian public officials! How do you undertake to host 8,000 runners and still fail to figure out a safe, functional inflatable starting point? I sincerely hope all the runners out there are safe. These incompetent characters should never again be allowed to organize an international sporting event where the safety and well-being of runners are compromised. #RevolutionNow

RE: EKITI POLICE ARREST 11 SUSPECTS. A MAJOR ADMISSION OF THE VIOLENT ATTACK ON US, BUT WHERE ARE THE MASTERMINDS? The Ekiti State @PoliceNG Command has now announced the arrest of 11 suspects in connection with yesterday’s brutal attack on me and members of my team in Ado-Ekiti. This is a major admission that what happened was no ordinary “altercation,” as the same police initially tried to deceive the public into believing. It was a coordinated, violent attack that could have cost us our lives. We maintain that it was an assassination attempt carried out by government-sponsored thugs. But the police are still playing games! Where are the masterminds? Where is Sola Adenijo, popularly known as Solar, whom we have identified as one of those involved in coordinating the attack from the State Governor’s Office, especially the CSO to the governor, CSP Ayodele Akinlua? We have demanded that the authorities investigate his role and those of other suspected political thugs whose faces were captured by CCTV cameras at the scene. Some of the individuals involved are associated with the so-called City Boys group. These allegations must be thoroughly investigated, including links to officials of the Ekiti State Government @ekitistategov I demand that the Ekiti State Commissioner of Police, CP Falade Adegoroye Michael, and the @OfficialDSSNG immediately preserve and release the relevant CCTV footage of the attack. Let Nigerians see the faces of those who attacked us, identify those who directed them, and establish who provided them with protection and intelligence about our movements. Arresting 11 suspects is not enough if those who planned, financed, coordinated and facilitated the attack remain untouched. The police must also explain why they initially dismissed a vicious assault that left members of our team injured as a mere “altercation.” What changed between that misleading statement and today’s announcement of 11 arrests? The Commissioner of Police and the @OfficialDSSNG must quit playing mind games with Nigerians. We demand an independent, transparent investigation that follows the evidence wherever it leads, including to politically connected individuals and government officials. We will not accept a cover-up disguised as an investigation. We will not accept the arrest of foot soldiers while the masterminds walk free. Release the CCTV footage! Arrest and prosecute everyone implicated by the evidence, including the sponsors and masterminds! You cannot attempt to eliminate political opponents and then expect the victims to remain silent. #RevolutionNow

The Commissioner of @Policeng in Ekiti State and the State Director of the @OfficialDSSNG in Ado-Ekiti must immediately return the CCTV camera taken from the proprietor of TawakalituRestaurant, which captured the violent attack on me and members of my team immediately.

THE SHAME OF THE IKOGOSI MARATHON ORGANIZERS: I DEMAND INTERNATIONAL SANCTIONS AS IT IS CLEAR ORGANIZERS ARE COMPLiCIT IN DEADLY ASSASSINATION PLOT AGAINST ME Following the self-indicting statement issued by the organizers of the Ikogosi Marathon, led by Makinde Araoye, I call on @WorldAthletics (formerly IAAF), the global governing body for athletics, including road running and marathons, to immediately sanction the organizers of the #IkogosiMarathon in Ekiti State, Nigeria, and blacklist the game organizers for being complicit in the violent attacks against me and members of my team who fuels registered to partake in the competition. They must never again be permitted to organize or participate in sporting events that bring people together in the spirit of peace, unity, and healthy competition. I further call for international  sanctions against the Governor of Ekiti State, Biodun Oyebanji, and the organizers of the Ikogosi Marathon, including Makinde Araoye, for their involvement in these attacks or efforts to facilitate them. Sporting events must never become hunting grounds for political thugs, government-sponsored violence, intimidation, or assassination. Runners and other participants must be guaranteed safety, regardless of their political beliefs or affiliations. We intend to pursue further legal and measures against the organizers and the Ekiti State Government over this inhuman conduct, which endangered lives and violated the fundamental principles of sportsmanship and human dignity. The circumstances surrounding these coordinated attacks raise grave questions about the involvement of the event organizers and state authorities. I demand a thorough, independent investigation to establish the full extent of their roles and hold everyone responsible and accountable. Let it be known that nobody involved in these attacks will be allowed to escape accountability. No political office, government connection, or sporting platform should provide immunity for violence against innocent citizens. We will pursue justice through every lawful avenue available, nationally and internationally. @bbcsport @cnnsport @SuperSportTV @SuperSportBlitz

My interview today with Seun Okinbaloye on @channelstv #PoliticsToday had some intense moments. At one point, I had to call Seun out for being insensitive when he asked whether I was a threat to the government.

The political thugs allegedly sent after us by the Ekiti State Government, with the assistance of DSS operatives, did not stop at brutally attacking and injuring members of our team. They also stole their phones, wristwatches, and shoes during the attack. Through technology, we have now tracked and located some of the stolen items but the police hasn’t done anything to recover them.

The Director-General of the @OfficialDSSNG Tosin Ajayi, has been contacting media houses in Nigeria and deployed the @OfficialDSSNG officers in their social media dept , pressuring them either not to report the brutal attack on us in Ado-Ekiti or to distort their reports to downplay the severity of the assault. Let it be known that operatives of the @OfficialDSSNG at the state and some attached to the Ekiti State Government House accompanied the attackers to the scene of the brutal assault on us in Ado-Ekiti, having earlier provided them with our exact location.
