By Web News 405

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate for Oyo South Senatorial District, Chief Joseph Tegbe, has urged the people of Oyo State and Nigeria in general to shun any act capable of truncating the ongoing democratic process in the country.

In his New Year message issued in Ibadan, Chief Tegbe described 2023 as a momentous year in Nigeria’s political

history.

While congratulating the people of Oyo State and Nigerians in general on the new year, he urged them to be optimistic that the conduct of the general elections would be successful and that it would further propel the country into great heights.

“I want to plead with Nigerians to shun any act that can affect the

smooth conduct of the forthcoming general elections and, by extension, the much-anticipated smooth democratic transaction in the country,” he said.

The Oyo South PDP senatorial candidate also expressed satisfaction with the level of awareness among the electorate toward the forthcoming general elections.

“Aside the joy of making it to a new year, there is so much optimism in this particular year, as we are all hopeful about the forthcoming elections.

“I’m also happy that the electorate is now wiser and understand what they want from their candidates and their expectations from the conduct of elections.

He further stated that the forthcoming elections would, no doubt, change the narrative about Nigeria’s political trajectory, given the fact that our people are now more politically sophisticated and enlightened than they used to be and are ready and prepared to use their votes to enthrone leaders who would serve their interests.

“It is now obvious that the electorate cannot be deceived this time around, as they are now grounded and focused on voting individuals based on their antecedents.

The senatorial candidate prayed for a better year and a country that would be home to all, irrespective of citizens’ ethnic and religious affiliations.
