Ahead of Edo governorship polls, SDP speaks

“Voters and the 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,” Adebayo stated.

He further criticized the All Progressives Congress (APC) for its economic policies, which he claims have brought hardship to the nation. “We stand by our candidate and our manifesto of Farewell to Poverty and Insecurity,” he added.

Adebayo also advised voters to reconsider their choices in light of the current economic situation. “Any voter 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 themselves,” he said.

As the election day draws near, Adebayo’s message is clear: the SDP is committed to its candidate and its vision for a better Nigeria.
