In his acceptance speech, Adebayo said that with his emergence, it was the turn of Nigerian masses to take over power in 2023.

He vowed that the SDP would give both the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) a ‘good fight’ in the 2023 general elections.

Adebayo said, “We will campaign to every household, every polling unit, every ward, every local government, every state, every zone and the entire country.
