The Life In Imo Group (LIIG) in conjunction with Human Life Protection Advocacy Initiative has called on the stakeholders, especially party Candidates vying the Gubernatorial Seat in Imo State , to restrain their followers and media handlers from taking the law into their hands and defamation/Assassination of leader's character on media space.
Addressing newsmen in Owerri, the National Chairman/ State Coordinator of the group , Prince Maduba Chukwudi Francis (OluImo) enjoins politicians to embark on intensive issues base campaign rather than throwing tantrums that is tantamount of inciting chaos or triggering violence.
OluImo said : "There is no gainsaying the fact that there would always be winner and loser in any contest . Losing in a continuing contest such as the periodic elections is only temporary, as contender could ordinarily go back to re-strategize for the next opportunity.
He pointed out that Imo State has gone through much already for a little over there years now , and the people need to rethink whenever there is tension concerning any issues and note that a single wrong step can spark off yet another cycle of violence that none can predict how far it can go .
The chairman appealed to all stakeholders to still resort to the legal and genuine procedure, and where this does not produce the desired expectation, those concerned should be consoled that power comes from God and no one can come into it except he gives it to the person.
“We therefore urge all stakeholders, especially political leaders, to restrain their followers. Former President Goodluck Jonathan rightly stated that nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen. Again, Martin Luther Jr. admonished that we must learn to live together as brothers or all perish together as fools because he acknowledged that although there would be situations where we have reason to be angry because we consider we have been wronged by our neighbors, we must find a way of peacefully accommodating ourselves or we all lose out”
He, therefore, urged the good people of Imo State to behaves themselves peacefully and harmony as the people looks forward to the upcoming November 11, 2023 off season Imo State Gubernatorial Election.
