“Anyone can do social media polls and purposefully omit one candidate due to a certain issue.”
Prince Adewole Adebayo, the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), believes his party will win the presidential election this year.
When asked about social media polls conducted to gauge each party's chances in the 2023 General Elections, the Social Democratic Party's (SDP) presidential candidate, Prince Adewole Adebayo, responded as follows.
“Our Party runs issue-based campaigns rather than campaigns focused on trivial matters. In Nigeria, we are accustomed to seeing hired audiences turn out for campaigns, but because of the strong bonds we have built with the people, they warm up to us despite our lack of financial backing.
“Some of the inquiries made on social media are not framed to address the problems at hand", he said.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) rules state that no candidate may spend more than five billion Naira, but politicians routinely violate these rules with impunity, he added.
The vast majority of expensive campaigns are carried out with vast sums of money that were almost certainly obtained illegally, and the vast majority of them do not address issues and how they affect the general public.
“As members of the SDP, we firmly believe that the Party belongs to the people, and we work to educate voters on topics like budgetary balance, security, housing, and education, among others.
“That is why we are very confident that we will win the elections because we empower the citizens to collect the Permanent Voter Cards(PVCs) and also let them know the issues that should influence their choice of candidates.”
