2027: We’ll unseat Tinubu, APC – SDP Chair, Gabam

The National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Shehu Gabam, has told President Bola Tinubu that anyone can lose the 2027 presidential election, insisting it is not about individual brilliance or strategy.

He stated this while revealing that top political dignitaries are moving into the party, joining in droves across Nigeria.

The SDP Chair made this known during an interview on Channels Television on Monday, adding that the party is open to welcome more of such personality.

DAILY POST reported that a former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai recently joined the SDP from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

He said, “Virtually every day we receive decampees to SDP, every state of the federation, including today, I received some in my office, these are dignitaries.

“If you google you will see there are over 300 resignation letters from VIPs, some of them were Senators, some of them were Ministers that are joining the party.”

He went further to state that the party is focus on taking over the Presidential Villa in 2027.

“I am a leader of a political party; my mission is to take over the government, the mission of APC is to retain power, the mission of PDP is to take over power,” Gabam said in reply to whether his party wants to take over power from the APC.

He said his party is sure of victory in 2027 since the party presently in government is not listening to the cry of Nigerians and risks losing the election for this reason.

“Anyone can lose the election; it’s not about individual brilliance or strategy. If there is brilliance, if there is efficacy in power, they wouldn’t have been making the mistakes they are making today.

“We believe that there are surplus of talents untapped that can deliver leadership in Nigeria. No individual has monopoly of quality of leadership that is not available anywhere else,” he added.
