Kebbi State Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC) has charged leaders at all levels to ensure good governance as panacea for peace and unity in the country.
The state chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Muhammed, stated this in his Christmas message to his members and entire Christians in the country.
He urged them to pray for peace and unity in the country, admonishing Christ followers to practise the teachings of Jesus Christ, which is love for one another.
According to him, “In the year under review, our body has fought fearlessly for the entrenchment of enduring democracy and fairness to all political parties, particularly in Kebbi State, where we ensured that no political party that is willing to partake in any elections was denied the right.”
Muhammed added that as an advisory body of political parties, they will remain committed to the ideals of democracy and will continue to demand for good governance across board.
He said: “Good governance is a catalyst for peace, unity and even developments.”
While wishing Christians merry Christmas across the country, he maintained that for peace to reign, leaders must encourage religious tolerance by ensuring that no one attacks another over one’s faith, but should unite against division and bad governance.
The chairman, however, called on Kebbi State Government to sustain the infrastructural revolution going on in the state and boost the economy, improve the internally generated revenue (IGR) and increase the welfare of citizens.
