The 2023 presidential candidate of Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prince Adewole Adebayo said the party will not become a tool to be used by disgruntled followers of President Bola Tinubu.

Adebayo stated this on Monday amid talks of a possible opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 general election.

He said the SDP remained open to joining a coalition that serves the interest of Nigerians.

However, he said the party would not allow itself be used to settle scores with the president.

“Of course, my party knows that I’m running for the 2027 election. As for the coalition, we are listening to them. We don’t want to be a getaway car for a conspiracy and robbery we did not plan. That’s not available.

“If the coalition is for the Nigerian people, the SDP is available. But if it is just a crime centre for disappointed Tinubu followers, they should go back to him and resolve their differences there. Don’t come to SDP to borrow us for a fight we are not involved in,” Adebayo said at the 50th birthday celebration of his wife Lillian Adebayo in Abuja.
