Adewole Adebayo, the Social Democratic Party’s (SDP) 2023 presidential candidate, recently announced that the party has no intention of merging with any other political group ahead of the 2027 general election.
Eko Hot Blog reports that Adebayo made this declaration during a meeting with members of the Ogun state executive of the party in Abeokuta.
Furthermore, Adebayo addressed allegations that the SDP is merely an extension of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), asserting that the party is an independent entity genuinely committed to advancing the interests of Nigerians.Adebayo said, “Maybe APC has appendicitis, they should go to the hospital to kill it.
We are a strong party. We are older than any of the parties available. Our mission is clear: we are not in government with them.
“I led the party in the last election. I’m still standing here. I’m not a minister under Tinubu, all the State Chairman, the National Chairman are intact, National Secretary.
So, we are standing on our own.“The reason people look down on us is because we don’t attack people to tackle issues, because our party is a party of intellect.
We are the only party that’s a little to the left. Having been a little to the left since we came in 1989 we remain so.
“The problems of Nigeria can only be found with solutions on the left, which is that chapter two of the Constitution, invest money in education, in housing, in healthcare, good infrastructure, let Nigerians live what chief Obafemi Awolowo called a life more abundant.”
