In the lead-up to the 2027 election for the nation’s top seat, Adewole Adebayo, the Social Democratic Party’s (SDP) presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, has warned Nigerians against politicians who change parties without changing their political views. According to him, the change that Nigerians have been waiting for will only be brought about by new politicians with fresh ideas. In this interview with journalists, he discussed a variety of subjects, including what Nigerians must do to put things right in 2027. He also clarifies the reasons behind the opposition coalition’s inability to embrace the SDP as their platform. Ihechukwu Sunday was there for BASEMEDIA. Take a peek!In accordance with electoral law, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) recently requested that political parties refrain from running any kind of campaign until 150 days prior to the elections. However, Farouk Aliyu, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has criticized INEC for not using the big stick to punish defaulting parties. How do you feel about the actions of the political parties and the current role of INEC?
There are two factors at play here: first, President Tinubu and the APC are at fault. There is only APC and Tinubu everywhere you look.
The majority of the parties, according to INEC. When you are the party in power and the leader, you set the tone. You set the standard for following the law when you are the nation’s leader.
No matter where you go, President Tinubu’s picture is always there, and some of his family members are already waltzing and dancing in anticipation of 2027. Therefore, you would respond if you didn’t want to be seen as an opponent panting. Our laws wouldn’t conflict with the government’s methods of governance if it were in charge.However, since they are running for office, the opposition must be in a campaign format. Then, a large number of politicians who were left behind were displaced. Politicians are now wandering around in search of political accommodations after President Tinubu used them and dumped them on the highway. As a result, politics becomes current as people switch parties, search for a party to join, dissolve, use a party, and join their crisis.
