The 2023 presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prince Adewole Adebayo, has revealed his political stance following his defeat at the February 25 poll.
According to him, he would remain in the opposition party and criticize the errors of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The presidential candidate maintained that the SDP would keep working to give Nigerians alternatives to avoid people running to the ruling party.
He posited that his frustration with the outcome of the election would not force him to join APC because he disagrees with their policies.

Speaking in a chat with Daily Sun, Adebayo said, “What stands for me is to make sure that the government gets full and maximum support of the citizens, and at the same time, we give them criticisms regarding so many errors they are committing, as you can see now. It’s one error or the other every day. We criticise them to correct those errors. And we organise our people to have a culture of democracy. That is why we work very hard in Kogi and other states.
“We will keep working to ensure we give our people an alternative. We must not be demoralised in the opposition, whereby everybody will run towards the ruling party. What will I do now with all the frustration? Will I go and join APC, which I don’t agree with, because 99.9 percent of their policies I don’t agree with? I won’t. So, we will continue to be where we are in the opposition, but we will continue to be loyal to the country and respectful to the government and then ensure that the system works. That is all I am about now.”
