Officials of both Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and National Orientation Agency (NOA) also witnessed the exercise.
Addressing party members after the exercise, the party chairman, Chief Ademola Ishola, told them to disregard insinuations that another faction of the party exists in the state, claiming that he remained the authentic leader of SDP in the state.
Ishola called for dedication from members and urged them to reach out to non aligned people of the state and members of other political parties, and convince them on the need to support SDP in the governorship election because of its rich manifestoes and willingness of the party to serve the people credibly.
