By
Naija music icon, Innocent Idibia, professionally known as 2face Idibia
has declared he would be running for office come 2019.
PM news reports that Idibia was interested in affecting lives
positively, hence his willingness to take up political responsibility.
The former ‘Plantashun
Boiz’ member in a chat with pressmen noted on Tuesday that it was about time
good people intervened in politics.
‘2 Baba’ as he is fondly called, however, did not reveal
under which political platform and at what level he would be seeking to
actualize his political aspiration.
His words:
“Politics affects everything I do. So, I am definitely going
to be interested in politics. I will soon participate as a contestant and speak
the truth at all times.
“I hope and pray that good men will rise up and make a
difference in this country, because we need more patriotic people in all aspects
of life,” he said.
Also, Tuface Idibia called on Nigerians to come to the aid of
victims of the herdsmen and farmers clashes.
“There is so much we’ve been saying about this crisis, but
nothing much has come the way of the victims.
“We just need more people to support and join hands to
continue extending relief materials to affected people.
“This is the most important thing we can now do; bring
succour to the victims,” he said.
The musician said people need to be sensitized on safety
precautions during times of crisis.
Tuface Idibia appealed to the Federal Government to do
the needful by ensuring a permanent solution to the crisis.
“This thing is going on for too long, repeating itself over
and over. There has to be a solution, the victims are not goats they are humans
and should be taken care of.
“I feel terrible not because it also happened in Benue State,
where I hail from, but because it is also happening almost throughout the
federation.
“It does not have to happen to someone you know before you speak
up about it,” he said.
