Renowned cleric and leader of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Adamimogo Grace of Mercy Prayer Mountain Worldwide, Prophet Sam Olu-Alo, has urged voters in Osun State to let their conscience guide them in selecting the next governor during the upcoming election on Saturday.
He emphasised that voters should not sell their votes but instead choose a candidate capable of delivering the benefits of democracy.
Speaking at the annual prayer and fasting program held at the Adamimogo Jesus City Campground along the Lekki/Epe Expressway in Lagos, the cleric called on the youth of Osun State not to allow unscrupulous politicians to use them to incite violence before, during, and after the election.
According to him, the people of Osun State must make wise voting choices in the forthcoming election.
He said, “Please think deeply and ensure it is the person you know will bring progress to the state that you vote for. Vote with your conscience and not for money. If you sell your votes in Osun to the highest bidder, know that those who buy the votes from you will first ensure they loot the treasury to retrieve their money when they get to power.
“It is this kind of dirty game that has made our nation to remain stagnant since. Let your conscience guide you in voting for the right person. Any politician who is hell-bent on enticing you with money to get your vote has no good plan for the state. I also want to urge the electorate to ensure that they do not vote with bitterness. They should ensure that the politician they are sure would do the job is the one they give their votes to. This advice is for all Nigerians too who would be going to vote in a few months’ time.
“As for the youths in Osun State, please do not allow yourself to be used by politicians to cause violence to disrupt elections. Most of these politicians who send you on such deadly errands have their children living abroad, well protected.
“They don’t allow their children to face such violence as they ensure they are secured. But they put your own life in danger when they send you on such errands. As a vibrant Nigerian youth, if you don’t allow yourself to be used by these politicians and ensure that you live a decent lifestyle, you can also become the governor in the nearest future. Any nation that allows bloodshed incurs the wrath of God. So, the people of Osun State, I urge you to vote with your conscience and protect your votes. It shall be well with you.”
