Nigerian musician Innocent Idibia, professionally known as 2Face or 2Baba, has advised Anambra youths to vote wisely and for a candidate that will secure their future.
The iconic singer said this while speaking at the ‘Vote Not Fight’ campaign in Awka. He also beseeched the youths to shun all forms of violence.
2Baba implored the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agencies to discharge their duties with no form of bias during his speech.
He also charged voters to cooperate with the security agencies to ensure a violence-free governorship election on November 6.
“We are here to dialogue with Anambra youths and campaign for peace, especially, as we prepare for election. Our youths are critical stakeholders; this is why politicians use them to cause violence,” the singer said.
“I want to tell you that violence has no gain but destroys lives and property.
“As youths, we need to promote peace, because without peace; the election cannot be free, fair and credible, and development too, cannot take place.
“Let us be aware that election is not war but a time for us to participate by voting wisely for the candidate that can help secure our future.”
2Baba’s advice is coming at a time insecurity is on the rise in the southeast.
