Gov. Seriake Dickson

Bayelsa State Government on Tuesday urged political parties to shun violence before, during and after the December 5 governorship election in the state.

The state’s Commissioner for Information, Mr. Esueme Dan-Kikile, who spoke for the government at a news conference in Yenagoa, said peace remains vital for free, fair and credible poll.

The government spoke shortly after the Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr. Nasiru Oki, also appealed to political parties to avoid inflammatory speeches and hate campaigns, which could cause violence.

Dan-Kikile asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), security agencies and other institutions of the Federal Government involved in the poll to be neutral to give all political parties a level-playing field.
