SDP presidential candidate Adewole Adebayo says he is confident of winning the 2027 election if it is free, fair and credible.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, Adebayo said his campaign would focus on tackling poverty and insecurity. He added that President Bola Tinubu of the APC, Atiku Abubakar of the ADC and Peter Obi of the NDC would “collapse under their own weight.”
“They will collapse under their own weight; that is not the issue. What I want to defeat is poverty and insecurity.
“But to defeat that, you need to defeat ignorance in people going to just vote based on sentiment or looking for something,” Adebayo said.
“You also have to defeat lethargy where people get tired, ‘Oh, my vote doesn’t count. You also have to defeat apathy.
“So, once we do that, we will defeat anybody. When we say defeat, it’s not a wrestling match; it’s about convincing the majority of your fellow citizens to believe in this plan. To say this plan is going to work.”
He also linked the country’s security problems to weaknesses in governance, saying that better leadership could help address them. Adebayo argued that Nigeria’s Armed Forces have the capacity to confront terrorism and said citizens should no longer be living with the threat of terrorist attacks within six months.
He pledged to tackle banditry and said his goal was to deliver improved security to Nigerians by Christmas 2027.
The presidential election is scheduled for January 16, 2027.
Adebayo has expressed confidence in his chances in the 2027 election, and we appreciate his optimism. We wish him all the best in the forthcoming election.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
