LAFIA — The leadership crisis rocking the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Nasarawa State deepened on Monday as the party’s state chairman, Barrister Ibrahim Likita Ajegena, said he had assumed control of the party secretariat in Lafia.
Ajegena also declared that the party was prepared to wrest power from the ruling party in the state and at the centre in the 2027 general elections.
Addressing journalists against the backdrop of the lingering disagreement within the Nasarawa SDP, Ajegena dismissed reports of a serious crisis, describing those challenging his leadership as “aggrieved members” who had allegedly resorted to what he termed “spoiler” activities after failing to achieve their objectives within the party.
“There is no crisis in the SDP. There are only some aggrieved members who feel that they could not do anything but to become spoilers,” Ajegena said.
