Former president Goodluck Jonathan has urged Nigerians not to vote for ‘killers’ in the forthcoming 2023 general elections.
Johnathan stated this on Sunday in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom state capital during a thanksgiving service to mark the 35th anniversary of the state.
He said, “In 2023, you must not make the mistake to vote killers,” Jonathan charged the congregation. “Those who will carry knives, guns, and all kinds of gadgets to go and kill people because of politics, are the enemies of society.”
Advising politicians to desist from ‘killing’ in order to emerge victorious at the polls, Jonathan said: “If you kill to become a leader, you will continue to kill to remain a leader and the people will continue to suffer.”
The former president and his wife, Patience, were the special guests of honour at the interdenominational service.
