Vote for your choice, accept winners – Christian traditional rulers to Nigerians
The monarchs, who met in Umuahia on Friday, also advised Nigerians to accept the eventual winners of the 2027 elections in the interest of peace and security.
Addressing the press after the meeting, the Chairman of the Board of the Christian Traditional Rulers of Nigeria, Eze Oliver Ohanwe, said there was an important need for the electorate to vote for the candidates of their choice in 2027.
He maintained that votes for the president, governors and legislative positions should be cast for people with credible records and achievements, not on sentiment and political party considerations.
The traditional rulers who said that the association wants peace, development and security in Igboland and other parts of Nigeria, urged voters to support the eventual winners of elections in their states, and to avoid acts of violence.
Also speaking, the host of the meeting, Eze Nnamdi Ofoegbu, said the monarchs were taking steps to prevent killings and insecurity in the South-East and other parts of the country.
Eze Ofoegbu said that prayers organized by the group in 2025 contributed to the relative peace in parts of the South-East.
“We are praying for life and security, we are praying against death and insecurity in our land and that is why we want the best to emerge,” Eze Ofoegbu said.
Every second brings Nigerians closer to exercising their democratic right and shaping the future of our nation.
Exercise your democratic right responsibly, peacefully and lawfully.
