Osun Govt Alleges Fresh Plans To Cause Chaos, Warns Against Disruption Of Peace
Osun State Government has warned groups, individuals and all residents of the state against disruption of the peace submitting that it is time for post-election reconciliation and peace-building.
In a statement issued in Osogbo on Sunday and made available to Team@orientactualmags.com by Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Oluomo Kolapo Alimi, the state government offered its condolences to victims of the pre-election tensions and violence while calling for state healing and urging all to avoid a return to conflict in the post – election space.
The government also said there were post- election disruptions in some areas of the state and urged all residents and citizens of the state to allow restoration of peaceful co- existence and rule-based interactions among all sectors of society.
The statement also warned against causing chaos or disruption of the peace.
‘The government is particularly disturbed by reports of plans by some stakeholders to ignite fresh rounds of crisis across local governments and motor parks across the state.
This plan, if true, should be stopped immediately in the interest of public peace. Osun needs peace for development, not violence in politics.
The Osun State governorship election has been won and lost. Mr President and Mr Governor have engaged on a peaceful way forward. Any push towards violence represents an affront on the presidency and the Nigerian constitution.
The government calls on security agencies to enforce return to rule of law by ensuring release of political detainees and an end to perceived partisan policing especially on local government and motor park management.
We call on all political actors to speak and act peacefully. Osun should be in a period of healing and building. We must not allow a relapse into the pre-election era of killings and violence’ the statement added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
