Cleric urges politicians in Kogi to shun violence

A cleric, Envangelist Frank Kato, has urged
politicians and their supporters in Kogi to shun
actions capable of heating up the polity in the
state.
The cleric gave the advice in an
interview with the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) in Lokoja on Sunday.
‘’ The political class demands and
deserves political harmony,
understanding, collaboration and
accord, to move the state forward.
‘’So far, we thank God because the
political situation in the state after the
election is peaceful, and largely
harmonious, we don’t want anything
that will jeopardise this positive
development.’’
Kato also urged all those who contested
the election to see themselves as a forum
of leaders providing leadership to the
people of the state.
The evangelist urged politicians and
political office holders in the state to
prioritise the welfare of the people.
In a separate interview with NAN, an
agriculturist in the state, Dr Tunde
Arosanyin, urged the the political parties
and their candidates to accept the
outcome of the Nov. 1 Governorship
election in the state in good faith.
According to Arosanyin, the politicians
and their supporters will do the state
good by eschewing violence after the
announcement of the results of the
election.
