2023 Presidential Elections: SDP Not In Alliance With Any Parties- Aiyenigba
Joel Ajayi
The National Publicity Secretary, Social Democratic Party SDP Amb. Rufus Aivenigba has debunked the rumour of forming an alliance or negotiating with any political party for the forthcoming presidential election, saying Barrister Adewole Adebayo remains the party candidate.
It was earlier reported that a member of the APC Mr Alfa Muhammed said that the ruling party has an alliance with SDP, to boost the chances of its flagbearer, Bola Tinubu.
Speaking on Thursday at the Press briefing in Abuja, Aiyenigba denied any deal with the APC or any other political party described the statement as fabricator of falsehood.
According to him, the attention of the chip of the Social Democratic Party SDP has been called to some dishonest and illegitimate publications by one Mr. Alfa Mohammed who had claimed he was speaking on behalf of our great Party the Social Democratic Party, and purportedly with respect to the Party’s Presidential Candidate and collaboration with other political Parties. But SDP disowns Mr Mohammed and insists that “he is on his own.”
“As a matter of fact, Mr. Alfa Mohammed is a complete persona non-grata in the Social Democratic Party. He is a compulsive impostor and fabricator of falsehood.
“The Party had in the past put a disclaimer on this same Mr. Alfa Mohammed, a former member of the Social Democratic Party when it was first discovered that he was fond of concocting spurious, sometimes fraudulent, and unfounded reports and stories.
“It was this habitual recklessness and outright disregard for decorum by Mr. Alfa Mohammed that led to his being relieved of his position as Deputy Publicity Secretary of the Party in November 2018 before he was suspended from the Party in March 2019 by the National Working Committee (NWC) and later expelled by the National Executive Committee (NEC) in August 2019. His expulsion was upheld by the subsequent National Convention of the Party in June 2022.
“It is true to his character for Mr Mohammed who has not been part of any activities of the Social Democratic Party in four years, that is, since early 2019 but has intermittently pushed fabricated lies to mislead and defraud the public with the malicious intents to tarnish the reputation of targeted individuals in the Social Democratic Party or in other Party under the irrational guise that he is fabricating a “faction”.
He added that: “We note that no political party can curtail disciplined or expelled ex-members from grumbling or groaning to get noticed but faction-fabricators like Alfa Mohammed need to be called to order when their shamelessness start to impinge on the sensibilities of the public.
“We are not interested in what has motivated Mr. Mohammed for his recklessness or how this has become his character hallmark, therefore, we formally reported his serial misinformation and misrepresentation to the Inspector General of Police in August 2022 for the Apex Law Enforcer to call him to order for “Impersonation, False Pretenses and Conduct Likely to Cause Breach of Peace and Mr. Mohammed is, indeed, under watch and investigation for criminal impersonation.”

PDP Chieftain Calls for Removal of Dr. Emma Agbo as DG of PDP Governors’ Forum
Benue State, Nigeria – Mr. Sam Obeya, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from Benue State, has called for the immediate removal of Dr. Emma Agbo as the Director-General of the PDP Governors’ Forum.
This call comes on the heels of the aborted Congress in Benue State, which was marred by litigation and controversy. Mr. Obeya alleges that Dr. Agbo played a significant role in the botched Congress and demands his removal to ensure the party’s unity and progress.
“The actions of Dr. Agbo have caused irreparable damage to our party in Benue State,” Mr. Obeya stated. “His removal is necessary to prevent further divisions and ensure that our party remains strong and united.”
Mr. Obeya expressed concern that Dr. Agbo may become a tool to serve the personal interests of Governor Bala Mohammed, just like his predecessor, Hon. Cid Madugbuna, who was seen as a stooge of former Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State.
“The PDP cannot afford to have a Director General who serves only the interests of one governor,” Obeya said. “We need leadership that prioritizes the unity and progress of the party above personal interests.”
Obeya called on party leaders to take action to ensure that the PDP Governors’ Forum remains independent and serves the interests of the party as a whole, rather than being used to promote personal agendas.
