The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has admonished Nigerians to eschew politics of rancour, and acrimony ahead of the 2023 General Elections, IgbereTV reports
Abiodun gave the advice, on Saturday, at the inauguration of the South-West Executive of Arewa Consultative Forum and conferment of the Award of Peace Ambassador on him by the Forum, held at the June 12 Cultural Centre, Abeokuta, the state capital.
The governor stated that Nigerians should rather pay serious attention to the future, and engage in activities that would unite than cause disunity in the country.
Abiodun said: “Let me use this opportunity to inform our people that politics and politicking towards next year’s general elections have already begun, and we must all shun the politics of rancour and acrimony. We should rather consider the greater good of our nation as paramount in our thoughts and deeds.
“We must not allow politics to truncate what we have enjoyed in Ogun State. This administration has done everything within its capacity to lower the political temperature, to ensure that all issues relating to crime, criminalities and thuggery are lowered so that our people can be free to go about their businesses
