Ahead of next year’s presidential election, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) has received a massive boost from the Youth Democratic Party of Nigeria.
In a meeting recently between the leadership of both parties, the YDPN pledged its support to the SDP in its quest to halt the All Progressives Congress and the People’s Democratic Party’s duopoly in 2023.
Recall that the Social Democratic Party had urged youth-led groups across the country to collapse their nationwide structure into the party.
National Chairman, Shehu Gaban, said the SDP would give automatic tickets to anyone who wants to contest an elective position should they accept to join the party.
Chairman of YDPN, Zekeri Hashim, said the merger with SDP was necessary because young Nigerians were in need of a platform to fully be involved in politics.
