 As part of efforts to mitigate its political violence during and after the fourth coming joint elections across the country, Global Peace Foundation Nigeria has called on all Nigerians to join hands against any form of electoral violence and political challenges by ensuring peaceful and transparent pose in 2023. Let's say political violence has negative impact on democratic systems and the economy. Speaking of the inauguration of Cardona State Peace and Mediation and Work in Committee Cares PMC in Cardona Country Director Global Peace Foundation Nigeria Rev. Dr. Joseph Hayab says peace, unity are panacea to growth and development of any nation. Any report of tension anywhere they will go and mitigate because we believe that the credibility of our election is when it is violence free. If our election is not violence free then we begin to think that the person who won't probably do not win, he actually just might have played and win. We want leaders that we can trust, we want leaders that will be accountable to us. That's why we do not like violence before, during and after violence. Also Chairman of Cardona Peace and Mediation Work in Committee Beatrice Dangiwa says there is need for all to champion the cause towards peaceful elections while calling on Nigerians and politicians to shun politics of bitterness and hate speech capable to undermine security and democracy of the nation. We want to encourage everybody who wants to vote not solely to save his right. It's all about the election, the fourth committee election. We are looking at a situation where we can mobilize people to all stakeholders to invite peace, not so that we can have a peaceful and credible election.
