Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto state, has urged politicians to operate with the fear of God and desist from using youths as political thugs.
Tambuwal made the appeal at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders meeting in Sokoto on Thursday.
He urged politicians as well as other members of the society not to promote political restiveness in the state, and to shun violence.
The governor said his administration had ensured crime-free communities by supporting educational development and engaging youths in various empowerment initiatives.
He, however, said that with the elections drawing nearer, parents, community leaders and others should support the government in ensuring that peace was sustained.
