"Go out and vote candidates of your choice", Olubadan charges subjects

Ahead of the gubernatorial and State House of Assembly elections, the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Akanmu Adetunji, Aje Ogungunniso I has urged the people to go out en masse and vote for candidates of their choice.

Oba Adetunji, in a statement signed in Ibadan on Friday by his spokesman, Adeola Oloko also stated that improper conduct at the polls by critical stakeholders is an ill-wind that would blow no one any good. He listed the critical stakeholders as the generality of people including the electorate, the politicians, the electoral umpire and the law enforcement agents.
According to him, in a contest of more than one person, only an individual would win. He further stated that if the contest produces a winner, the winner should be magnanimous in victory, while the loser should be gallant in defeat.
Saying that the ambition of any public office seeker is not worth the blood of innocent Nigerians, Oba Adetunji stated that anyone who has no business with the polling centre should keep away from it for the sake of peace.
