You can’t hijack SDP for your personal fight against Tinubu, Adebayo warns ATIKU, El-Rufai

Prince Adewole Adebayo, the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, in the 2023 elections, has issued a strong warning to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Malam Nasir El-Rufai  and other opposition leaders that they cannot hijack the party for personal fight against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

He said SDP is not a “getaway car for a conspiracy and robbery”.

Adebayo spoke on Monday night during the 50th birthday celebration of his wife, Queen Lillian Adebayo in Abuja.

The legal luminary, who said he was still in the race for the 2027 presidential elections, maintained that SDP is not a platform for personal political battles.

“Of course, my party knows that I’m running for the 2027 election. As for the coalition, we are listening to them. We don’t want to be a getaway car for a conspiracy and robbery we did not plan. That’s not available.”

“If the coalition is for the Nigerian people, the SDP is available. But if it is just a crime centre for disappointed Tinubu followers, they should go back to him and resolve their differences there. Don’t come to SDP to borrow us for a fight we are not involved in.”

On the killings in Benue and Plateau, Adebayo advised the president to strategize the security architecture of the country to address insecurity in the country.
