Sen. Aliyu Wamakko (APC-Sokoto North) has urged voters to be peaceful as they head to polling stations to vote in Saturday’s Governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections.
This is contained in a special message to the people of Sokoto State.
According to Wamakko, peace is the prerequisite for any meaningful development.
He said, “Without peace and harmony, development and socio-economic prosperity will continue to elude us. Our topmost priority should be the sustenance of peace, unity and the spirit of good neighbourliness.
Wamakko said that violence would not do anybody any good, as it is destructive and retrogressive.
“Nobody should perpetrate violence in the name of politics, hence we should all uphold the sanctity of human life.
“God gives and takes leadership to whosoever He wishes and at his appointed time. So, we should all go out peacefully on Saturday and cast our votes for our preferred candidates.”
