Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan Tasks Voters To Avoid Voting For Killers In 2023

By Damilare Adeleye

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has warned Nigerian electorate against voting the wrong set of politicians into power in the 2023 general elections.

He said with the wrong set of people in power, the citizens will continue to suffer.

Jonathan made this disclosure on Sunday while speaking in Uyo during a special interdenominational service to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the creation of Akwa Ibom State, noted that those who kill in order to get into power will continue to kill to remain in power and therefore cautioned Nigerians against voting for such people during election.

According to him, “In 2023, you must not make the mistake to vote killers.

“Those who will carry knives, guns, and all kinds of gadgets to go and kill people because of politics, are the enemies of society. If you kill to become a leader, you will continue to kill to remain a leader.”

“The people will continue to suffer. Make sure that from the House of Assembly to the House of Representatives to Senate to governor, you vote the right people in Akwa Ibom State.”

Jonathan also commended the Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel for performing excellently since assuming power in 2015 despite having most of his experience in the private sector prior to his election.

“The election of Governor Udom should teach us, politicians, a good lesson. When Governor Udom was to come as a governor, people said this man has never been into politics.“Though we know he is a finance person who has been in the bank, he may not know how to manage human beings. But Udom came on board and changed the story,” Jonathan said.
