The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has told the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct a credible, free and fair election, as he urged the winners to consider the poor when elected.
This was revealed in a statement, released by his Director of Media, Moses Olafare, as he also said the winner should be magnanimous in victory.
This, according to him, will promote unity, as he said whoever losses, should be supportive of the winner.
Ooni said: “This is a year that we will enthrone our leaders that will rule us for another four years.
“While we enter another electioneering moment, we beseech INEC to conduct a free, credible and fair election.
“Our youths remain the future and the glory of our dear nation.
“Therefore, they should desist from taking part in commiting any illicit electoral acts, frauds, thuggeries and carrying ammunition for any politician as the case may be.
“Our politicians should endeavor to run a peaceful campaigning that is devoid of shedding of blood as no ambition of any politician is worth the life of any Nigerian.
“Let the will of the people prevail by allowing them to exercise their franchise on the election day.
“Allow their votes to count as they make decisions in electing who controls their resources for the next four years.”
