The Coalition For Good Governance in Osun State urges all parties involved in the current Election Petition Tribunal to exercise caution and encourage their supporters to refrain from making inflammatory statements that could escalate political tensions.
According to a statement signed by Adetayo Adegbemle on Wednesday in Osogbo, the CSO cautioned political parties from continuously making statements in public on the case.
The statement reads, “It must be noted and said that an average man on the streets is only desirous of good governance, and expects their Government to lead them into prosperity.
“The People of Osun State are industrious, and this could be seen in the number of Small and Medium Scale Industries that operates every day in the State capital, and all other major cities in the State.
“It is prejudicial, and total disregard for the Law of Nigeria, for anyone to go about boasting that the Election Results will be upturned, and this will only continue to create unnecessary tension in the State.
“The interest, the voice, the will, and the commonwealth of the generality og people of Osun State should be the primary focus of all and sundry.
“While everyone awaits the final judgement from the Election Petition Tribunal, we advise that all parties involved should hold their peace, and not continue to utter statements that could disrupt the peace of the State.”
