LOKOJA—The National Coordinator, National Youth Coalition For Jonathan/Sambo 2015, Prince Olatunji Olusoji has advised politicians to desist from making inflammatory comments capable of jeopardising smooth and acceptable general elections.
Prince Olatunji, who spoke in his home town Ayere, in Ijumu Local Government Area of Kogi State during a rally he organised for youths from his constituency to gather support for President Goodluck Jonathan, Senator Smart Adeyemi and Hon. Teejay Yusuf said such statements could over heat the polity and create avoidable tension.
He also reminded politicians that their individual ambitions are subordinate to national interest.
Nigeria must exist as a nation first before we could pursue our individual ambitions.”
He therefore, advised those fanning the embers of war and disunity to have a rethink, saying “we have more to gain by staying united.”
He reiterated that politics was a call for service and not a platform to cause disaffection among citizens.
