2023: Chief Olu Falae Denies Endorsing Peter Obi

I have said repeatedly that the Social Democratic Party, SDP has the best manifesto of all the political parties in Nigeria. And in the 2023 presidential election, the SDP Candidate, Prince Adewole Adebayo is the best choice on the merit. He has a clear grasp of the issues and has offered the most realistic and effective solutions to the problems of Nigeria today. I urge Nigerians to rally behind the SDP and its presidential candidate, Prince Adewole Adebayo

_“The report that I threw my weight behind calls for a South-East presidency or Peter Obi is not true”,_ Chief Olu Falae has clarified. Chief Falae who is the Deputy National Leader of Afenifere also said that he was not aware that the well-known Yoruba Social cultural group, Afenifere has taken any position to back or support Mr. Peter Obi.

_“I did say sometimes ago that the Yoruba, as a people, are not morally obliged to vote for an Igbo presidential candidate or Peter Obi because in 1999, when the rest of Nigeria conceded the presidency to Yoruba because of the MKO Abiola’s issue, it was only the Igbo, who did not accept.”_

_“I had to defeat Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife in the Alliance for Democracy to become the candidate for the AD/APP Alliance. Chief Olusegun Obasanjo had to defeat Dr Alex Ekuweme in the PDP to become a candidate. The Igbo were the only ones that opposed both of us in our respective parties; they did not concede to us along with other Nigerians. However, the Yoruba are fair-minded people and some of them could vote for Peter Obi.”_

_“I have said times without number that the Social Democratic Party (SDP) has the most effective programmes for social justice and Nigeria’s recovery. I have endorsed SDP’s Presidential Candidate, Prince Adewole Adebayo and not Perter Obi.”_

Adebayo promises to clear N77trn Nigeria debts

Presidential Candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prince Adewole Adebayo said Nigerians should not be worried about the evidence of failure by the President Muhammadu Buhari administration that hired an unimaginative team to head the Central Bank of Nigeria and create debts instead of managing the economy. According to report in the Tribune he does not see liability in Nigeria as he prepares to activate the various assets of the nation to turn around the grim situation to one, of international envy. He said that conversion of the land assets to various agricultural production would also harvest more taxable revenue to boost and address critical needs of the economy. His words I knew these problems before I declared to run. In fact if these problems were not there, I would not have taken interest to run. “When you have a debt profile that is put at N77 trillion, you are looking at the death side, what about the asset side? “I mean everything, all other things, solid minera
