A group, Election Transparency Advocacy Coalition, has warned politicians to stop promoting ethnic agenda in Kogi State.
In a press conference on Friday in Lokoja, the group also gave a pass mark to the Independent Electoral Commission, INEC, for conducting a free and fair election in the November 11 governorship election won by Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo. The coordinators of the coalition, Barrister Oluchi Anabude and Peter Ugwoke, who jointly addressed the press conference, berated some politicians fanning embers of disunity in the state to desist henceforth.
They are taking out their frustration on INEC without any justification by being purveyors of falsehood and wicked propaganda to discredit the said election, which they lost woefully. 'INEC is not their problem. Their problem is themselves and their candidate, who did not have the political status and structures to win even his local government.
