2023 Presidency: SDP presidential candidate takes final decision on alliance with Bola Tinubu
Ahead of the 2023 general election, the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Adewole Adebayo, has said that his party “will never work with” the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), or Peter Obi’s Labour Party.
THE PUBLISHER NIGERIA reports that addressing his loyalists during the flag-off of the presidential and governorship campaigns at the Ake palace ground in Abeokuta on Saturday, Adebayo described the leading political parties and their candidates, Bola Tinubu (APC) and Atiku Abubakar (PDP), as confused.
The lawyer admitted that some candidates may step down for one another, but, shut out alliances with other presidential candidates.
“You can take this to the bank, we will never work with APC or PDP,” Adebayo said.
“Nobody who loves Nigeria at this time will want those people the way they looked confused, to come back at all. APC is a confused party.
“And I am not saying it as an insult, they are confused. They are in power and they are saying they are going to change the government when they are in power.
“PDP will never repent. God doesn’t mind sinners, but the job of sinners is to repent.
“If you were in government for 16 years and you have been out of federal power for eight years, and you are still sluggish as before, as fraudulent as before, as deceptive before, as comical as before, then you never change.”
He added: “Let me make it very clear, when I mentioned APC and PDP, it includes Peter Obi because he still PDP. He is just borrowing Labour Party for one week.”
