45 days to the 2023 presidential election, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) National Publicity Secretary, Rufus Aiyenigba, has denied any deal with the All Progressives Congress (APC) or any other political party.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Aiyenigba, who noted that the party’s presidential candidate, Barrister Adewole Adebayo, had gone too far to contemplate treading such a path, said the SDP remains the only party with a genuine plan to reposition the nation.
“No, it is not true. I am not saying that other parties cannot do it but not the SDP.” The party’s spokesman told Punch.
“As we speak, our candidate is going for the election and we are mobilising across the nation. As we speak, he is in Kano.
“Tomorrow (Wednesday), our team will be in Bayelsa and we flag off in Ogun State on Saturday. We are not having any alliance with any party, individual or group.
“No party in the country is passionate about the need to birth a new Nigeria like the SDP. How can a party with the most robust blueprint think of an alliance in which it is not the principal partner? No deal, I repeat.”
