The Presidential Hopeful of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Prince Adewole Adebayo has seen his campaign gather momentum after getting royal blessings from the Emir of Gumel, HRH Alh. Ahmed Mohammed Sani II.

This happened during Prince Adebayo’s visit to honor the invitation to the Emirate of Gumel Durbar Festival in Jigawa State on Saturday, 8th October, 2022.
The legal luminary was received by the Emir of Gumel before the Durbar Festival commenced, stating that his visit to Gumel is an example of politics without bitterness.
He said, “When our Emir was in politics as General Secretary of the Greater Nigerian People’s Party (GNPP), he practised politics devoid of bitterness and rancour”.
He believes that disagreement as far as policies and issues are concerned, but we would not give room for bitterness.
“We will compete on ideas; we will see ourselves as children of Nigeria and leaders of Nigeria. We are brothers, even if we disagree on issues we don’t disagree in persons, and our followers and supporters will know that they, too, are brothers and sisters, that election will be over and Nigeria will continue.” He added

He noted that the SDP is committed to eradicating poverty and insecurity and this is the message of hope that has been brought to the people of Gumel in Jigawa state.

In his words: “What has been slowing them down is that they need a Government that is committed to eradicating security and eradicating poverty and that is what message we have brought here. By the time that we will come here next year, insha Allah we will be in Government and you will see a lot of projects in this Emirate”.

The Emir of Gumel, HRH Alh. Ahmed Mohammed Sani II(CON) gave his blessings, prayed for him and expressed his support for Prince Adewole Adebayo.
