“Stability in consensus building within party ranks through regular interactive meetings between the leadership and followership at all levels of the party in the state and national.
“Regular support for party activities as required and permitted under law such as saw SDP coast home comfortably to victory at the 2023 elections winning the governorship, a mandate that was stolen but working round the clock to reclaim it at the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, sitting in Asaba, the State capital.
“And total sponsorship of the party’s campaigns and electioneering efforts at the 2023 polls from the state down to the polling units.
