Don’t Enslave Yourselves With Your Permanent Voter Cards, SDP Presidential Candidate, Adebayo Tells Nigerian ElectorateAdebayo said this at the weekend during his speech at the SDP presidential/gubernatorial flag-off in Ogun State.
The presidential candidate told the crowd at the venue of the rally that their brain is the most important they have going into the elections, saying it will guide them to make proper use of their PVCs.To that, the crowd chorused a ‘yes’. Adebayo, however, responded by saying “you are wrong”. “Don’t look at my face. I can get somebody to put powder on my face and I will look very nice. Don’t look at my poster because that poster is the work of a photographer. What you should look at is how can I use 2023 to change my life history, to serve under a government run by human beings for human beings?
He said, “Politics is not for politicians and politics is not entertainment. We can dance, we can do whatever but at the end of the day, when you finish dancing the politician will enter his Mercedes and go to his mansion. You will enter danfo and go to your house without light.
