The Presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prince Adewole Adebayo, stated on Friday that neither he nor his party, the Social Democratic Party (SDP), will run for any political party in the 2023 general elections.

He made this known in a sit down with journalists in Ibadan at the conclusion of the party’s two-day Stakeholders’ Summit themed, “South West Summit for critical Stakeholders on common interest and strategic approach for 2023”.

He also added that the SDP has no plans of merging with any of the country’s Political Parties.

Prince Adebayo believes that Nigerians are tired of the ‘misrule’ which has been a major component of the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) leadership in the past 16 years which has prompted the SDP to enter the fray.

Prince Adebayo further maintained that his party is in the race to “lift Nigerians out of poverty,” adding, “We are in the race because there are no good schools, no healthcare services, no roads.”

“SDP is not in alliance with any political party. SDP is not stepping down for any political party, but if we have any political party that want to join us, they can join us. But, SDP is contesting this election,” he noted.

Prince Adebayo elaborated, ” we are not stepping down for any political party, because that will be a great betrayer to the people of Nigeria”.

“People are running away from PDP and APC, so if we disappoint them now, then we have taken them back to the people that have caused them untold suffering”. He added
