Ebola: SDP presidential candidate warns against shifting 2027 elections

Adewole Adebayo, the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), has cautioned against any plans to cancel political campaigning or reschedule the 2027 general election due to the Ebola outbreak. In a speech at a dinner organized by his campaign council in Abuja, Adebayo stressed that a single confirmed case of Ebola is not sufficient to declare an epidemic.

He insisted that the nation could maintain public health without disrupting the electoral process. The SDP presidential candidate further announced that his manifesto has been translated into several Nigerian languages ahead of the 2027 elections. He accused the current administration of perpetrating deception and obfuscation, stating that Nigeria successfully contained an Ebola outbreak in 2014 under the previous government.
