The Social Democratic Party, SDp has urged interested citizens to join it through the appropriate ward-level processes while reiterating its commitment to offering an alternative political platform for change and hope.
The party also dismissed reports circulating on social media and other platforms alleging that its executive committee and members have defected to another political party.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, the SDP described the claims as false and misleading, saying no member of its executive at any level, nor its general membership in Kaduna State, has defected to any other party.
The state Chairman of the party, Hon. Adamu Idris, said the rebuttal became necessary following inquiries from party members and members of the public seeking clarification on the reports.
He reaffirmed the party’s loyalty to the SDP’s leadership at state and national levels, saying the Kaduna chapter remains fully aligned with the national leadership of the party under National Chairman, Dr. Sadiq Umar Abubakar, and National Secretary, Dr. Olu Agunloye.
The party also addressed claims by individuals purportedly moving from the SDP to other parties, insisting that such persons were never bonafide members.
It accused some “political wanderers” of attempting to associate with the party without following the proper registration procedures outlined in its constitution.
“The SDP in Kaduna State is intact and focused,” the statement said, adding that the party plans to commence a mass membership registration drive after the Christmas and New Year holidays ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The SDP concluded by wishing the people of Kaduna State a peaceful transition into the new year.
