Adebayo's Supporters Demand Detailed Manifestos from Rivals

Supporters of Adewole Adebayo, the presidential candidate for the Social Democratic Party (SDP), criticized other candidates for not providing detailed manifestos ahead of the 2027 general election. This criticism was voiced by the CountryFirst Movement, led by convener Chris Mustapha Nwaokobia Jnr., during a press conference in Abuja.

The coalition reviewed the manifestos of 11 out of the 18 candidates listed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and found Adebayo's manifesto, titled *Farewell to Poverty and Insecurity*, to be the only comprehensive document. The manifesto outlines a four-year framework that addresses security, food production, energy, employment, education, healthcare, and infrastructure.

Key proposals include establishing a Presidential Delivery and Performance Office within the first 100 days of a potential administration, auditing key sectors, and improving transparency in public spending. The coalition urged political parties to prioritize detailed and achievable policy programs in their campaigns, emphasizing the need for voters to scrutinize candidates' proposals.
