According to Nigerian investigative journalist David Hundeyin, Omoyele Sowore, the former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the general elections of 2023, is the largest plant in West Africa supported by US intelligence agencies, and his claim that he is a revolutionary activist is merely a front.
In a post on his verified X handle on Monday night, Hundeyin asserted that Sowore, the convener of #RevolutionNow and publisher of the online news platform Sahara Reporters, is an undercover agent and front for the agencies whose main objective is to use deceit to destabilize African nations.
He explicitly listed the Ford Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, and Omidyar Network, all of which are US agencies, as some of the organizations purportedly supporting Sowore’s program.
He further mentioned that President Bola Tinubu is employed by the same agencies.
“I’ve already said everything I have to say about him. He works for the same people Tinubu works for,” Hundeyin wrote.
“Literally all you have to do to confirm this for yourself is pull up the Wikipedia page of Sahara Reporters and see who funds it (Omidyar Network, Ford Foundation, MacArthur Foundation) – all U.S. Intelligence front organisations.
“Just because he wears a beret and shouts #RevolutionNow, some people think that in and of itself must put him against the status quo.
“Meanwhile the oldest trick in the western foreign intelligence book is to infiltrate and subvert revolutionary spaces using their funded Trojan horses.
“They’ve literally gone as far as embedding their undercover agents into organisations they want to infiltrate and getting them to even marry members of these organisations and raise kids with them.
“Compared to that level of subversive effort, how hard is it to fund one yellow beret-wearing numpty in West Africa to jump around and destroy the actual revolutionary movement in Nigeria by centring himself as the “revolution,” fixing dates and venues for protests (signposting them for the puppet government), and gathering intelligence for them about people who can actually change anything?
“Yele Sowore is the biggest *** plant in West Africa, and I don’t understand how this could be more obvious. The dude is literally funded by U.S. Foreign Intelligence. It’s in your face!”
Examining the Sahara Reporters Wikipedia page further verified that the platform had received grants totaling millions of dollars from the organizations Hundeyin had cited.
Regarding the funding technique, Wikipedia stated:
“Sahara Reporters was traditionally supported by grants donated by international foundations and non-governmental organizations.
“It has received support from the Ford Foundation, which donated $175,000 to the organization in the past, and from the Global Information Network. Sahara Reporters has also received a $450,000 grant from the Omidyar Foundation.
“Sahara Reporters Media Foundation was awarded $1,300,000 between 2016 and 2019 by MacArthur Foundation.”
