- Emir Muhammad Sanusi II has suggested ways a
violence free election can be achieved
- The Emir urged the Kano state governor to address
political leaders in the state
- According to Sanusi II such move will help develop a
framework for a peaceful election in 2019
The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi ll, has
called on the Kano state governor, Abdullahi
Ganduje to address political leaders in the state.
Sanusi said a meeting of political leaders should
be called by the governor to help develop a
framework for peaceful election in the state in
2019, premium Times reports.
Speaking on Sunday, June 17, at the Hawan
Nassarawa Durbar, the Emir appealed to the
governor to invite all political stakeholders over
conducting a violence free election.
He said: “We have a single request to the governor on
security. We are appealing to governor to invite all state
chairmen of political parties to work out how to conduct
violence-free elections.
“People should also understand that calling politicians
under one umbrella for the purpose of putting things in
good shape doesn’t mean calling people to switch over to
other political parties. This is not what we are saying. We
only need people with good character to be piloting the
conduct and affairs of our political parties,” the Emir
said.
Sanusi also called for vigilance and healthy
lifestyle as a means to ending drug abuse in the
state.
In his response, Ganduje said the state
government would partner with the media in
Kano, especially radio and television stations to
work against hate speeches in political
programmes.
The governor said: “We are putting in place an effective
mechanism to check unwanted political behaviours. That is
why we have in the pipeline a plan to include media
practitioners, especially from radio and television stations
to see how they can help our society through cleansing all
media contents against hate speeches.”
“We will continue doing our best in curtailing such hate
speeches that are not good but detrimental to democratic
development.
