National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam, has pledged that if Nigerians gives the party the opportunity to produce the Successor to President Muhammadu Buhari, the party shall change the face and character of governance in the country.
Alhaji Gabam made the pledge on Wednesday June 8th 2022, during his address at the ongoing Special National Convention of the party holding at the International Conference Centre, Abuja.
“Today we are set to elect our party’s presidential flag bearer who will be mandated to pursue our vision of a new Nigeria, presenting to Nigeria, a new initiative on how to move our country forward to a destination that we can all be proud of.
“Nigerians and Nigeria should be and indeed tired of unfilled promises and dashed hopes are now ready to change their destinies. Nigerians are tired of unending insecurity problems, tried of poverty abd want, tired of daily threats to Nigeria’s cooperate existence, tired of non-inclusive governance, tired of policies that exaggerate our differences, tired of the daily immigration of our best brains and our youth to better climes”.
He pointed out that Nigerians are tired of clueless leadership and epileptic power supply in spite of the collosal investments in power generation, stressing that Nigerians crave a land of equal opportunities, social justice, fairness and liberty to pursue their legitimate daily chores without let or hindrances, a land where existence and ability to achieve their hearts’ desires and to contribute their quota to its development is not defined by their identities.
He assured all presidential aspirants a level playing field in its avowed characteristically transparent manner, revealing, “we have also empaneled a mediation committee to address any issue that may arise at the end of the convention being aware of our past experiences, where there was a recant of agreements freely entered into by an aspirant to accept the outcome of the primaries and to work with whoever emerged as the party’s flag bearer”.
