The Social Democratic Party SDP in ondo state has said that the rumour making the rounds that the party in the state has endorsed and form alliance with the All Progressives Congress APC candidates, is a ruse and should be considered as rumour.
In a statement issued by the party chairman in the state, Hon. Stephen Adewole and made available to Journalists said some miscreants who had since been expelled from the party cooked -up the political lies for their selfish interest and never on the interest of the party
He therefore urged all the good people of ondo state and the party supporters to turn deaf hears to the fake information and disregard such completely.
” The attention of the Social Democratic
Party’s Ondo Chapter has been drawn to
elaborately false claims ascribed to the expelled members of the party on March 16, 2022
with the title “SDP Adopts APC Candidates, House of Assembly Elections in Ondo State.”
‘ Ondo SDP does not normally respond publicly to comments attributed to non-members,
but given the sensitivity of the issue, we believe that the false comment described above
requires a swift response, not only to clarify the facts, but also for the sake of our large
team of supporters, who may have been misled by the mischief makers’ conjectures.”
‘ For the avoidance of doubt, and record purpose, let it be noted that all our candidates into
the Ondo State House of Assembly are all in the race till the end and none of them is
stepping down for any of the candidate from the other political parties”
” We have
candidates who stand out amid the State’s whole field of contenders. The record of our
candidates in private businesses and politics remain unblemished despite attempt by
irritants assembled by the opposition parties”
“Only bunch of disoriented and unsettled educated illiterates like these notorious gangs
would make up such defamatory tales. The terrible reputation of these infamous and
notorious men with loose tongues and their clannish myopic world view is well
established. As the March 18 House of Assembly election approaches, these aliens have
grown afraid, resentful, and envious of our MHA candidates rising profiles, current
acceptance, and the SDP’s daily rising reputation”
Adewole therefore called on relevant security agencies to caution politicians against attack on the members of the party in ondo west constituency ll recently saying if not checked, could escalate.
” In the same vein, we also condemned the renewed spate of violent attacks on supporters
of our great Party in Ondo West Constituency II”
” Our concern follows the today’s attacks
by thugs suspected to be working for one of the politicians who recently won his reelection
to the National Assembly was orchestrated to intimidate our supporters from coming out
enmasse to vote for the candidate of our party in Ondo West Constituency 1″
