The Social Democratic Party (SDP) has unveiled its presidential campaign council ahead of the 2027 general election, declaring its determination to challenge President Bola Tinubu at the polls.
The party’s National Chairman, Abubakar Sadiq Gombe, inaugurated the council at an event held in Abuja on Wednesday.
Gombe, who also chairs the campaign council, said Nigeria was at a defining moment and called on party members and Nigerians to unite towards unseating the incumbent President.
He urged members of the council to approach the election with seriousness and commitment, stressing that their responsibility was to secure victory for the SDP.
“Let us approach this election with the seriousness it deserves to unseat President Tinubu,” he said.
The campaign council comprises 12,000 members, with Yunusa Tanko, a former coordinator of the Obidient Movement and supporter of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, appointed as its national coordinator.
The SDP’s presidential candidate, Prince Adewole Adebayo, is among 17 presidential candidates seeking to replace Tinubu in the 2027 election.
The unveiling of the campaign council marks the party’s move to strengthen its political structures and mobilise supporters ahead of the presidential contest.
