Factional chairman of the Conference of Nigeria Political Parties (CNPP) Dr. Olapade Agoro yesterday in Ibadan cautioned losers in the just-concluded presidential election to desist from resorting to violence and rather take their loss in good faith.
“The adjudged losers should take their loss in good faith and be on the side of the peace of the nation,” Dr. Agoro stated in a signed statement made available to journalists in the Oyo State capital. According to Dr. Agoro, who is the National Chairman of the National Action Council (NAC), “the violence that greeted the announcement of the presidential election result, particularly in some parts of the country, is unwarranted since commonsense should dictate to anybody that somebody must win in a keenly contested election.”
“There can be no just cause to resort to violence anywhere in the country since we all won for the survival of our democracy,” he said.
