The Centre for Democracy and Development has issued a warning to voters ahead of Saturday’s governorship election in Kogi State.
The organization warned that the election on Saturday would be a ‘bloody process if urgent action is not taken to address the situation.’ The statement read: “Less than 48 hours to November 16, 2019, Kogi State Governorship election, political actors have failed to de-escalate the tension, which had been building up in the State.
“It is disheartening that political gladiators across the partisan divide have shown no apparent signs of refraining from using vitriolic rhetoric capable of inflaming passions, which could result in dire consequences for voter confidence and turnout and the credibility of the entire process.
