The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) has ratified Ambassador Rufus Aiyenigba as the substantive National Publicity Secretary of the party.

Also, the NEC meeting held in Abuja on Tuesday ratified the National Chairman of the party, Dr Olu Agunloye, a pioneer Corps Marshall, FRSC and two-term Minister of the Federal Republic; and the Speaker of the Youth Parliament (National Youth Leader), Hon. Chuma Uchechukwu.

Ambassador Aiyenigba’s confirmation by NEC came by a loud ‘YES’ voice vote and zero ‘NAY’ from delegates at NEC meeting.

According to reports, the unanimous approval stemmed from the general congruence of submissions on his manifest and unprecedented remarkable top-notch performance in discharging the responsibility of the office as the spokesperson and image-maker of the party since his assumption of office in April 2021.

The National Chairman of the SDP, Dr Olu Agunloye, speaking at the NEC meeting after being confirmed the substantive chairman of the party, said, “This is an endorsement that you approve of us, that you imbibe the kind of reorganisation and repositioning that we have been trying to build in SDP for the last two years. I thank you.

“I stand here before you today to bring you hope, the SDP family brings Nigeria hope. It is not the first time that this kind of hope will come, we saw it come 30 years ago, and believe when it is 30 years we will repeat exactly what we did in 1993.

“We stand before you today to bring you hope, we bring assurance because we are providing Nigeria the alternative platform. We no longer agree that we have to choose between the deep blue sea and the devil. In this particular case, SDP is offering you the leadership that will rescue Nigeria.”

Addressing the NEC, Ekiti State governorship candidate of the party, Chief Segun Oni who stormed the session with the Director-General of his campaign organization, Ambassador Dare Bejide, promised to bring hope to the people of the state who were anxiously waiting for the election day to turn out to vote massively for SDP in an election they had brandied as their last of having good governance on the state.

Oni assured SDP of massive votes in the 2022 Ekiti guber poll.

“Ekiti people are waiting for the SDP, the expectations are very high, the people will vote for the party massively, they know what they wanted, they are not fools, good governance for the entire country will start from Ekiti,” Oni said.
