The Director General of the Presidential Campaign Council of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prof. Iyorwuese Hagher, has distanced the party from the claim that it was among the opposition parties that have chosen the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, as their consensus candidate in the forthcoming 2019 Presidential election.

The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) had disclosed on Wednesday that all 45 parties in the coalition had agreed to choose Atiku as their consensus candidate for the election of the number one citizen of the country next year.

But the SDP in a statement signed by Hagher, said the party is not part of the purported endorsement of the PDP presidential flagbearer for the election.

“The attention of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and its Presidential Campaign Organisation has been drawn to the purported endorsement of the PDP presidential Candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as the consensus candidate of the Nigerian opposition parties for the 2019 presidential election. We hereby state unequivocally that the SDP is not a party to this arrangement.
“Although, we were initially part of the CUPP, the understanding was that each member party having elected its presidential candidate would then sit in a committee to select a consensus presidential candidate, running mate and other officers of the campaign committee.

“Contrary to this spirit of understanding, one of the political parties elected its presidential candidate, and without consulting the CUPP, went ahead to nominate its running mate and indeed, all other officers of their campaign organisation.

“This not only negated the understanding between the parties but also abrogated the agreement itself.”

However, SDP urged its members and the general public who have made up their minds to “vote for the SDP candidate as the next president of Nigeria to stay true to their convictions about Donald Duke and the SDP as the best options to take Nigeria out of its present situation and restore the glory of our great country.”

this space is not for sale, beware of 419

Everybody dissociating itself from Atiku. Even in Adamawa, Campaign posters are dissociating themselves from Atiku.

Don Duke is der Na....but we are all Atikulated even buhari but he is shy to admit that fact now

Atiku should increase the tempo in Northwest and Northeast... Even right in Adamawa Atiku might lose his home state to Buhari..



Any Nairalander here in Monguno, Borno State?

Let Atiku and PDP continue in their self deceit, election is just about two months away and their doubt will be cleaered.

It is normal but Nigeria must be governed again, we need an active and innovative leader, the world is moving too fast and we cannot afford another wasted 4 yrs.

phyllosilicate:
Everybody dissociating his self from Atiku. Even in Adamawa, Campaign posters are dissociating there self from Atiku.

If you knew that this poster was created before primary and decided to present it as a recent thing then you are one of the problems of this country else kindly note that the picture is old and was printed when the governorship aspirant was yet to know who the presidential aspirant would be.

Who sabi all dis stupid political parties gan self.

Lass lass we might discover the only party that endorsed him was ipob.

Den of thieves and bigots.

The election is still two months away and Atiku is already getting rejected by the people.

Now that we've rejected Atiku, next thing is to reject Buhari then we send this senile old men to retirement.

They can practice politics in their backyard.

After we've rejected Atiku & Buhari next in the process of getting Nigeria working again is to finally bury APC & PDP.

When we've buried APC & PDP we take back our country and get Nigeria working again.

Any one who is against this will die and perish in hell before 2019.

Sai Baba if we no vote Buhari wetin we gain?

Who sabi all dis stupid political parties gan self.

The same people wey no send them been dey masturbatê on the lie wey emanate from Wadata Plaza the other day say the stupid political parties adopt thief Atiku and Obj the Bigot as dem candidates for the election.

Nigeria will be great again, all the campaign about Atuku being g corrupt is nothing but giving a dog a bad name to hang him.
Hypocrisy at its peak.
Because of a peanut, yeah subject them to hunger and offer them food, they will listen to you.
I still refuse to believe that Nigeria is a failed state.
Thing are both working well and no cabinet reshuffling. Just a little while osibanjo was there thing had started working. Even the party chairman knows that the president is not active and paid agents are online trying to sell a bad market. Anything you wish for the country will come back to you.

PDP and Lies.

We. have three political parties in Nigeria. Others are just where people can. buy ticket so as to be addressed as "Former Xyz Candidate"

SDP is a party if patiently built could comfortably challenge the so-called mega parties.

About 3 partys who PDP claimed are part of CUPP have so far rejected Atiku and denied endorsing him

PDP and lies

Every sane and reasonable Nigerian rejecting Atiku

Nobody wants to be associated with a thief

A man bribed his teachers and fellow students to pass primary school in PH
Now does he think he can bribe everyone at secondary level ?

PDP owns CUPP? Atiku will loose, but, why then do you guys work so hard daily to malign him? Are you afraid?
