SDP warns Katsina members against forming illegal leadership structures
The Social Democratic Party in Katsina has warned its new members against forming illegal party leadership structures at ward, local and state levels.
The SDP chair in Katsina, Bello Adamu, gave the warning at a press briefing on Tuesday in Katsina.
He said that SDP, as a political party, has leadership structures at all levels.
“We caution individuals and groups that keep on forming structures in the name of SDP. This is very wrong. It is illegal, null and void to form a party structure, whether individuals or groups.
“The law doesn’t allow for that. The party will prosecute whoever is found wanting. We should know that clearly without ambiguity,” he warned.
Mr Adamu further said members from other political parties were free to join SDP because the party prioritises justice, equity, competence, fairness and honesty to all members.
According to him, the party had recently registered over 6,000 new members, and they were issued temporary membership cards.
He revealed that the permanent membership cards would be given to them by the National headquarters in the next two weeks.
The chairman further claimed that some important groups from the ruling party and the major opposition party had already indicated interest in joining the party.
He called on the members from other political parties to join the party, saying, “because it cherishes justice, competency and honesty among its members.”
