SDP will implement better life MKO promised Nigerians — Presidential candidate
The party’s presidential candidate, Hon. Adewole Adebayo, said resolving the party’s crisis is essential to prepare it for the task ahead.
He expressed the determination of the party to implement the better life Chief Moshood Abiola promised Nigerians in the 1993 presidential election which made Nigerians vote for him en masse.
He urged the electorate to trust the party and vote for it, because it would deliver on its promises.
On his part, Senator Ebenezer Ikeyina, a member of the board of trustees, said SDP should be the political party every reasonable Nigerian should be happy to associate with.
He said the party has an obligation to deliver service to the people, and that its candidates are not seeking public office for personal gain.
Also speaking, a former minister for Youth and Sports, Mr Solomon Dalung and Dr Olu Agunloye said the party chose to reconcile aggrieved members so that it can commence its campaign as a united party.
