A leading Dekina/Bassa House of Representative aspirant, Comrade Usman Okai Austin, has called on all sons and daughters of Igala kingdom to foster peace and unity among themselves.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Saturday, Okai said the rich historical antecedents of Igala kingdom cannot be compromised for any reason whatsoever, hence the need to discourage theories that seek to disunite the people of the kingdom.
“I know the importance of love, unity and tolerance. We must be careful and mindful of some agents working to demean the kingdom and her inhabitants,” Okai said.
The activist further urged Igala youths to shun violence and other vices that go against the wonderful image of Igala Kingdom, stressing that youths must be resourceful, hardworking and result oriented to foster development in the land.
“We have successfully entered into 2022 and it is my earnest prayer to see a redefined Igala Kingdom and Kogi State at large. With love, unity and tolerance we will have every reason to celebrate,” he added.
