Former Nigerian president, Goodluck Jonathan has expressed worry over what he described as ‘negative energy’ ahead of the 2023 general elections.
He said: “I am a bit worried by the negative energy generated ahead of the 2023 elections. We have noticed a level of bitterness in our politics that does not bring development and I plead with politicians that marketing is about marketing your ideas. Politics is not about fighting, is not insulting, is not about abusing.
He said further: “I believe anybody who commits a crime should not be covered under politics. Arson is arson and is never statute-bound, so for somebody who commits a crime, burns houses, kills people, the record must be kept and whenever the investigation is completed, such people should be prosecuted; that is the only way people would stop doing this.
Also speaking, Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State said he has satisfied his conscience with his achievements across the state, adding that despite criticisms and the falsehood peddled against his government, he has tried not to be distracted.
