Innocent Idibia, also known as 2Face, on Wednesday urged Nigerians to vote wisely for the candidates of their choice in next month's general elections.
The award winning musician made his thoughts and opinions known concerning the forthcoming elections in Lagos where he noted that the power of the ballot box would only be effective if the voters would go and vote for the candidates of their choice.
"You go to joints, you go to the cinema, you go to different places, everybody, it’s just complain.
"Let everybody get involved, Nigeria is our own country.
"Everybody has the right to choose which political party or which candidate to support; it’s every Nigerian’s right.
"And that’s one of the dangerous things about Nigeria, if you support the person that this other one does not support, automatically they will curse you, but it’s not supposed to be so.
"Let your candidate defend himself, let my candidate defend himself. Whoever talks better or performs better than the other, it’s still one Nigeria.
"If two people are contesting and one wins, either way they are contesting to help Nigeria .
"So the loser should be able to now come and work together with the winner and criticise constructively.
"Not the kind of criticisms that amount to outright condemnation, even if the person does good.’’
2Face said that he would actively participate in the elections and encouraged other Nigerians, especially the youth not to be violent during the exercise.
He said that he would continue to be non-partisan in his engagements with Nigerians.
