Sowore criticizes Buhari for Pardoning Ambrose Ali

Buhari and Sowore Buhari and Sowore

Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore has criticized the President, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), for granting pardon to late Ambrose Ali.

Ambrose Ali who was the former governor of Old Bendel State was granted pardon alongside others on Thursday.

Reacting to the president's decision, Sowore who contested the 2019 presidential election wondered why Buhari, who's regime removed from office a democratically elected Ambrose Ali in 1983, would be the one to pardon him.

He also wondered why bad political actors are getting rewarded under the Buhari-regime.

He tweeted: “We should be fighting differently, good people are losing out while bad political actors are getting rewarded for their bad behaviours! Imagine the regime of @MBuhari ‘pardoning’ Ambrose Ali a democratically elected governor he illegally overthrew in 1983?”.
