A PARLIAMENTARY Candidate in Muhoroni constituency within
Kisumu County has called for peaceful campaigns during this electioneering
period.
Reverend John Obera who is contesting for the Muhoroni
Parliamentary seat on Amani National Congress {ANC} Party says it is prudent
for all the Parliamentary candidates to conduct peaceful campaigns ahead of
this year’s August 8 General Election.
Speaking to the press in Kisumu on Wednesday, Obera has
singled out a situation where supporters of two politicians engaged in a
scuffle within Masogo Market in the constituency which left some people injured
saying such was very unfortunate incident.
He urges the supporters to be very tolerant and play
politics of maturity during this electioneering period.
He says politics will come and go but the area residents
will always remain hence the need to help in preaching peace and messages of
cohesiveness.
“This act of violence is not good for us both socially and
politically hence should be shunned at all cost because even business can’t do
well where there is political violence,” Obera says.
He urges the local Administration to take action and
investigate those who are perpetuating violence.
“I want to urge the local administration to investigate and
take action against those people who instigate violence during this
electioneering period,” he adds.
Obera has urged the electorates to vote in good leaders come
August 8 this year when the General Election will be held.
“As the electorates, you have the full powers in voting the
good leaders you want as well as rejecting the bad ones who normally incite
people to violence.August 8 is just a few days away where you will choose good
leaders,” he further says.
