Special adviser to Niger State Governor on Political and Strategy Alhaji Mohammed Nma Kolo has admonished politicians against the use of abusive and vulgar language during campaigns.
He said in Minna yesterday that only politicians who have nothing to offer take on people with insults and go vulgar to score cheap political goals.
Nma kolo urged politicians to make their campaigns issues-based and conduct themselves with decorum.
The special adviser, however, commended politicians in Niger State who have shown a high level of maturity and decorum in their campaigns
He said the call was hinged on Senator Dino Melaye attack on Kassim Shettima the vice Presidential candidate of APC saying “I watched with utmost surprise how people like Dino Melaye in the PDP campaign train last week insulted the Vice Presidential candidate of APC a few days ago and I became proud of politicians in Niger State who have shown maturity and played according to the rules, you cannot see any politician in Niger State that reckless “.
He said for the electoral process to be peaceful as desired, the actors must not deliberately heat up the polity through their utterances and conducts.
Nma Kolo promised to continue to embark on political mobilization for the victory of his party, APC, emphasizing that the challenges facing the party will be overcome because the party means well for the people.
On the ongoing challenges caused by the naira redesign; the grassroots political mobilizer said the timing was politically wrong and ill-informed positing that ” President Muhammadu Buhari must demonstrate that he has empathy for the less privileged Nigerians, maintaining that the ordinary Nigerians are suffering as a result of poor implementation of the naira redesign policy.”
He said, “If this is deliberate, it is unfortunate, you don’t destroy the ladder that you use to climb up you will certainly need it on your way down”
The special adviser however appealed to the people of Niger state to be patient as the state has joined other state governments to seek legal interpretation of the entire situation from the Supreme Court.
