The South-East Chapter of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) has invited former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, former ministers, Rauf Aregbesola and Rotimi Amaechi, as well as other prominent politicians, to join it ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The National Vice Chairman of the party (South-East), Chief Sir Arinze Ekelem, made the call on Thursday in Awka, Anambra State.
He said the party was ready to accommodate leaders committed to national development, adding that it offered a fresh political direction.
“The SDP is a party that prioritises inclusivity. It is a platform for Nigerians seeking a new political path to rescue this country. Join the movement now for a greater and better Nigeria,” Ekelem said.
He said the zone fully supports the party’s national chairman, Shehu Musa Gabam and the National Working Committee (NWC), commending their efforts in repositioning the party for future success.
According to him, the joining of the party by high profile politicians reflected the growing confidence in its vision and leadership, especially as preparations for the 2027 elections gather momentum.
