Imo State Governor and Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governors’ Forum, Hope Uzodinma, has urged voters in Osun State to shun violence and intimidation ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.

Uzodinma made the appeal on Thursday while addressing supporters at the APC mega rally in the state, where he campaigned for the party’s candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, popularly known as AMBO.

The governor said the APC was committed to peaceful participation in the election and urged voters not to be drawn into activities capable of undermining the electoral process.

“APC is not known for violence; APC is not known for trouble. APC is a party built on ideology, with progressive minds as members,” Uzodinma said.

“Don’t join the ugly parties in causing violence, killings, trouble-shooting. We have come to convince you to vote for APC on Saturday,” he added.
