Amnesty International Nigeria has called for an urgent investigation into alleged remarks attributed to Senator Francis Fadahunsi ahead of the Osun State governorship election.
The organisation made the call in a post on its X handle on Saturday, saying allegations of incitement to violence required prompt action by the relevant authorities.
Amnesty International Nigeria urged authorities to conduct a “prompt, impartial and thorough investigation” into the reported remarks and ensure accountability if evidence establishes that a criminal offence was committed.
“Political differences must never become a justification for violence,” the organisation said.
It also urged members of the public to support its petition calling on the authorities to investigate the matter and take appropriate action.
