Prince Adewole Adebayo, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, has expressed his willingness to sacrifice his personal ambition for the emergence of a more suitable candidate in the 2027 elections. Adebayo emphasized the SDP's commitment to providing Nigerians with competent leadership, stating that the party has learned from the mistakes of both the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the People's Democratic Party (PDP). He highlighted the SDP's adherence to internal democracy, transparency, and its focus on addressing national issues such as underdevelopment, insecurity, and poverty.

In a related development, Adebayo has called on Nigerians to reject the APC and its policies ahead of the 2027 elections, urging them to consider the SDP as a viable alternative for the sake of future generations. He expressed his willingness to contest against President Bola Tinubu if given the opportunity, citing concerns over the current administration's impact on the nation's welfare.

These statements reflect the SDP's strategic positioning as a party poised to capitalize on the challenges faced by major political parties, aiming to offer Nigerians a credible alternative in the forthcoming elections.
