A group, Campaign for Good Governance, has called for equity and fairness in future elections in Delta State.
It also noted that the Delta North senatorial district should produce the governor of the state in 2015.
This, according to the group, is the recipe for peace, equity, justice and good governance in the state.
The CGG National Coordinator, Mr. Obaro Unafe, stated this at a briefing on Wednesday in Asaba to mark this year’s June 12 celebration.
He said, “Depriving Delta North from producing the next governor in 2015 is an invitation to anarchy, crisis and unnecessary political competition.
“As we mark June 12, Campaign for Good Governance calls on Deltans and all political stakeholders to eschew bitterness and shun politics of godfatherism, selection of candidates and the practice of arm-twisting aspirants during primaries to favour a particular candidate.
“Campaign for Good Governance advocates best democratic practices in governance, encourages all stakeholders to shun thuggery and snatching of ballot boxes.”
The late business mogul, MKO Abiola, was widely believed to have won the June 12, 1993 presidential poll annulled by the military junta led by former dictator, Gen. Ibrahim Babaginda.
