African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has unveiled part of his manifesto for the 2027 presidential election, proposing the use of artificial intelligence to oversee Nigeria’s public finances and drone technology to strengthen the country’s security architecture if elected.
Sowore disclosed the proposal in separate posts shared on his verified X handle on Friday, saying his administration would rely on emerging technologies to improve transparency, reduce corruption and modernise governance if elected president.
According to the former presidential candidate, artificial intelligence would function as the country’s “Minister of Finance,” while drone technology would play the role of a “Minister of Defence.”
“Sowore2027 will appoint Artificial Intelligence as ‘Minister of Finance’ and a ‘Drone’ as Minister of Defence.
“The AI will eliminate human manipulation, waste, and corruption in public finance by making data-driven, transparent decisions. The Drone will redefine national security with modern surveillance, rapid response, precision, and accountability. The future of governance is technology, not patronage,” he wrote.
