Award-winning investigative journalist David Hundeyin has revealed that activist Deji Adeyanju and the leader of the #RevolutionNow Movement, Omoyele Sowore, are “controlled opposition” posing as social change advocates while being funded by foreign foundations.
Hundeyin made the claim in response to a post by Adeyanju, who had compared his influence to that of Sowore. Adeyanju had written, “It will take David Hundeyin 25yrs to get to Omoyele Sowore’s level sha forget Twitter retweets and obidients support. These things take time. It’s like me trying to compete with human rights lawyers who have been around for decades. But the work David does is amazing, so SOWORE.”
In his response, Hundeyin dismissed any comparison, arguing that neither he nor Sowore had electoral value, adding that both men would struggle to win even a local ward election.
Hundeyin claimed that while Sowore still had years to reach his level of journalism and geopolitical understanding, he himself was already recognized by foreign entities as a major adversary in West Africa’s information space.
His words, “If you’re referring to how long it will take me to collect $1.3m grants from front organisations linked to hostile foreign intelligence agencies, then it will even take me 100 years because I’m not interested.
“If it’s about electoral value, both Sowore and I have zero. Neither of us can win ward chairman in the place we were born.
“If it’s about being a journalist that works with national interest and a keen understanding of geopolitics in mind, then he’s the one who has 25 years to catch up with me, because I’m the one who is officially recognised by Nigeria’s enemies as their prime enemy in West Africa’s information space.

“By the way, both you and him are referenced in the same document below the line as part of that tiny yellow dot marked “social change advocates,” i.e, controlled opposition. At the end of the day, we all know where we belong and who we really answer to,” he added.
