2027: Don’t resign to fate, SDP’s Adebayo urges Nigerians

Published by

The candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the 2023 presidential elections, Prince Adewole Adebayo has condemned the attitude of Nigerians resigning to fate.

He noted that right from former President Goodluck Jonathan to Muhammadu Buhari and now, Tinubu, Nigerians have always murmured and complained about their cluelessness and directionless without proportionate action to install a good leader.

He however stated that his mission in the 2027 elections is to ensure that President Bola Tinubu becomes the last bad leader Nigeria will ever have.

On how he will achieve such feat, he said the secret is just to change the politics as it’s being played over the years and even as most parties are still going about it.

He added, “If you listen to politicians, they will tell you, oh, the president who is there now is the problem.

“Then, it was anybody but Jonathan. And then, oh, Buhari is the problem; he’s clueless and whatever.

“Now, Tinubu is the problem, but I can tell you, my mission is to make sure that Tinubu is the last of the bad presidents.

“How do you ensure that? You will change the politics. You will make Nigerians believe in the politics of their country, reasonable people who will not touch politics with a long pole.

When politics is done properly, ethically, and legitimately, they will come into it.

“More talent will come into it, and people will not emphasise the politics of money. So, once we change that system, it doesn’t matter if Tinubu can resign tomorrow, you can conspire and remove him but you don’t need that.

“What we need is to change the politics, and to do that, we must first change our political party, and anyone who looks at the SDP knows that we have changed the party for the better.

“The message is going to the people. While we are doing awareness and talking, I don’t want Nigerians to sit at home and point fingers at the bad governors and say it’s caused by politicians.

“The mandate comes from the people, and once the people raise their bar, some politicians will respond to it and some will fall by the wayside.

“But, if you say, under this current system we are running now, you want to bring money, push money on me, and put me there; I’m not going to accept.

“We must change the politics, and that’s what we are trying to do.

“By God’s grace, we will not let Nigerian people down, and we are not going to follow those who have ruined the system before.

“Anyone is free to join the party, but we are, for the people of Nigeria, we have no other objective, no other mission.”

He, therefore, urged Nigerians to adopt the SDP to be able to correct the political ills in Nigeria.

“That is what the leadership of the SDP is working to achieve. If you speak to our national chairman, Shehu Gabam, our national secretary, Olu Ogunloye and other leaders of the party, you’ll see that down our ladder and our organogram, we are reminding everyone who joins the party that they are welcome.

“However, look at our manifesto, chapter two of the Constitution and the plight of the masses, our politics is geared towards addressing that.

“What we want is for the party to be adopted by the Nigerian people as a platform to correct what is wrong in our politics,” he stated.
