Nollywood actors and actresses as well as Jos-based artistes have urged residents of Plateau State to fully participate in choosing credible candidates and also conduct themselves peacefully during and after the forthcoming general elections.
Addressing a rally at the Polo Field, Jos, the artistes including Dan Maraya Jos, Kanayo Kanayo, Patience Ozokwor, Chinedu Ikedieze, Peace Anyiam-Osigwe, among others, who all rendered peace songs appealed to the residents not to treat the elections as “war”.
Speaking with journalists, Mrs. Ozokwor said, “We have come to tell Nigerians who live here that our business in the coming elections is to vote those we feel will serve us best, not to fight for anyone because whoever wins or loses the election will only be individuals who can’t be greater than our country.”
The artistes cautioned the people against the sale of voter’s cards, saying, “Your PVC is your power, use it for the elections and keep it. Even if not for elections, you may need it for other things in the future”.
