A coalition of Christian youths under the aegis of Christian Association of Nigeria Youth Wing, on Sunday, called on Nigerians to avoid being used as political thugs in the 2023 general election but to defend their votes and make sure it reflects the wishes of the people.
“Nigerians, especially youths, will no longer tolerate being used for thuggery and blood-letting during this electioneering period.
“Enough is enough; people are being killed on daily basis: security men, women, pastors and politicians escaping assassination thereby leading to loss of precious lives of our young ones. “We can’t continue this way, we must defend ourselves and our votes and maintain everlasting peace which is the known culture in Nigeria.
“Sequel to this, YOWICAN will, from tomorrow, Monday, October 24, 2022, commence sensitisation on global peace campaign to all the zones, states, local governments as well as at ward levels for a peaceful 2023 general election and after election as well as to major stakeholders, actors and political parties.
“This sensitisation global peace campaign will help educate, enlighten and create great impact to the general public.”All rights reserved.
