A lawmaker and the All Progressive Congress (APC) candidate for the Lafia central constituency in the Nasarawa state House of Assembly, Abdullahi Angibi, has called on the youth to shun the politics of religion and ethnicity during, the governorship and state assembly election.
Angibi stated this during an interview with journalists in Lafia, the Nasarawa North central capital.
He said the state has been one of the most peaceful states in the country not known for religious/ ethnic disaffection.
The lawmaker further called on his constituents to be vanguards of peace and consider the state first before any other thing.
He said for any meaningful development, there must be peace for that to be achieved.
Angibi, emphasized that the present administration has done tremendously well for its people, hence the need for the people to reciprocate the gesture for more democratic dividends.
“Since I was elected in 2019, there is none of my constituents that seek for anything that I did not provide for them”,
“I drilled thirteen boreholes without constituency allowance, every year I paid for more than two hundred student Jamb fees, among which some are in three hundred level now in the University”, Angibi noted.
He therefore called on his constituent to come out en mass and vote for governor Abdullahi Sule and himself for governorship and Lafia central in the Saturday elections.
“In the last presidential election, people did not come out more, therefore, youth, women, and all should come out and vote peacefully without any problems”.
He added that if given the mandate for the second term, he would continue to do projects that would impact the grassroots of his constituency.
However, Angibi maintained that he is still in the race and confident that he would emerge victorious at the polls considering the efforts he had put up to actualize his ambition.
