Ahead of Thursday’s supplementary election in Osun State, the Transition Monitoring Group, TMG, has stressed the need for peace.
The group also called on all stakeholders to maintain peace and avoid any form of violence that could mar the process.
In a statement issued yesterday by its Board Chairperson, Dr. Abiola Akiyode-Afolabi, the group disclosed that it would deploy personnel to observe the re-run.
TMG said, “INEC must see to it that officials with questionable characters are not part of the supplementary election; that materials are delivered on time and no willing voter is wilfully disenfranchised in the affected polling units.
“Security personnel must ensure that no detractors are allowed to destabilise or disrupt the process. The Police and her sister-agencies must remain vigilant and alive to their responsibilities.
“They must also understand that their responsibility and ultimate loyalty is to the people and not to any self-serving politician. They must, therefore, carry out their responsibilities in the most civil, orderly and responsible manner.’’
