Edo Election: SDP Won’t Step Down For Any Candidate, Says Adebayo

Ahead of Saturday’s governorship election in Edo State, presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the 2023 general election, Prince Adewole Adebayo, said the SDP candidate, Anerua Abdulai Aliu, has not and will never step down for any candidate or party.

He further told voters to be wary of manipulators and their propaganda on the alleged withdrawal of the SDP from the race.

On the contrary, Adebayo, in his official X (former twitter) handle @Pres-Adebayo, said the people should not be deceived by the All Progressives Congress (APC) propaganda and its disastrous economic policy that brought sorrow, tears and hunger in the land.

“Voters and general public in the Edo Gubernatorial Election slated for Saturday 21 September 2024 should not be deceived by @OfficialAPCNg and its desperate propaganda.

“@TheSDPNg has not and will not step down for a political party whose disastrous economic policy is sorrow, tears and hunger.

“We stand by our candidate and our manifesto of Farewell to Poverty and Insecurity,” he said.

Given the economic situation in the land, Adebayo said whoever can spare a finger to thumbprint for APC and PDP should have his or head re-examined.

He said, “Any voters lamenting over poverty, insecurity, hunger, unemployment, inflation, hardship and injustice who still can spare a finger to thumbprint for @OfficialAPCNg or @OfficialPDPNig need to reexamine the connection between their brains and their fingers,” he tweeted.
