Nyong’o urges his opponents to engage on issue based politics
Kisumu Governor
Prof Anyang Nyong’o has urged his opponents for the gubernatorial seat to avoid
propaganda and engage in issue based politics during this campaign period ahead
of next month’s General elections.
Nyong’o says
politicians seeking elective positions in the forthcoming elections to maintain
decorum and avoid propaganda that could disrupt peace during this
electioneering period.
Through a press
statement to newsrooms today from the Chief Officer Information and Public
Communications John Oywa, Nyong’o said candidates should sell their policies
and tell the people why they want to be elected.
He says it is
unfortunate that some candidates are instead adopting weird and unacceptable
campaigns aimed at causing strife across Kisumu County.
“We are aware
that there is a small group of disgruntled individuals in Kisumu County bent on
disrupting peace and development for our people under the guise of campaigning
for a gubernatorial candidate who has no development record,” Reads part of the
statement
He says such a group
engages in spreading dangerous rumours and lies aimed at undermining the work
of the County Government of Kisumu.
“Unfortunately for
them, this government, through its development record, has earned the
admiration and respect of the people of Kisumu that no amount of lies will
shake their confidence in the leadership of the Nyong'o Government,” the
statement adds.
Nyong’o has appealed to them to repent early
enough to join the winning team and has urged Kisumu County electorates to
elect him for second and final term in office to continue with the work.
“We remain focused and committed to a peaceful
campaign because we know that the People need development and not malicious
propaganda, lies and disruption of public gatherings,” the statement further
say.
