Vote Prince Adebayo in Presidential Election And Other SDP Candidates in 2023 Polls — Says NWC, Debunks Reported Alliance
Amid rumours of alliance with other political parties, the National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam has directed all members of the Party to vote for Prince Adewole Adebayo, the Presidential Candidate of the SDP in the presidential election coming up on the Saturday, 25 February 2023 and to vote SDP in all the elections.
This followed the reaffirmation of the SDP National Working Committee (NWC) that the Party (SDP) is not in any alliance with any political party and the NWC has, therefore, formally directed all its members and supporters throughout the country, and all Nigerians in general, to reach out for their PVCs and vote for Prince Adewole Adebayo, the Party’s presidential candidate and for all SDP senatorial candidates, all SDP Candidates for the House of Representatives at the elections of Saturday, 25 February 2023 as well as vote for SDP Governorship candidates and all State Assembly candidates nationwide on 11 March 2023.
There were reports that the SDP had collapsed its structures for some political parties.
But while debunking the reports in a public notice signed by the National Secretary of the SDP, Dr. Olu Agunloye, the National Chairman reiterated the position of the National Working Committee that “a vote for SDP is a vote to combat poverty and insecurity with all sincerity and vigour based on principles of social justice.”
The SDP NWC then noted that it “stands firmly that Nigeria needs a new path and Nigerians yearn for an alternative platform with fresh ideas to heal the ills of the status quo.
“We believe the SDP is that natural alternative platform. The NWC urges Nigerians to realise the country cannot afford to lead the people who seek liberation back to their oppressors by way of any alliance.”
The SDP National Chairman stressed that the party is not only youths friendly but youths centred and its manifesto is rooted in youth empowerment and women emancipation with a view to usher in peace, progress and prosperity in our country.
The Chairman added that: “we have made sacrifices and laboured to build the Party, we must stand by the Party and vote for the Party”.
He urged Nigerians to eschew vote buying and vote for justice to choose the leader with undoubtedly superior manifesto in order to ultimately feel that they have voted for a credible alternative.
