Isaac Nwonwu, Labour Party’s governorship candidate in Rivers, has cautioned supporters of the party against indulging in violence during the 2019 polls.
Nwonwu told newsmen after meeting with some of his supporters in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, that he had no reason to indulge in violence.
“We have no reason to indulge in violence; my gospel to my supporters is to go about the campaigns informing people of our programmes.
“They must approach the electioneering with all sense of sanity and responsibility, which is what my party represents.’’
The Labour Party chieftain said he was confident that Rivers would “have a breath of fresh air” if he was elected governor of the state.
“We are presenting to Rivers people a credible alternative capable of enthroning positive changes in all sectors.
“We are taking pains to preach this message across the state; we can only have a smooth transition when there is peace.’’
According to him, the dominant political parties in the state have shown enough incapability to provide good governance.
“We need an alternative; we must leave the old order; they have been unfair to us and it is very clear that they have nothing to offer,’’ Nwonwu said.
