Lagos — Disturbed by the state of the nation especially as the 2015 elections, are getting closer, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at Communty has called on Nigerians, especially politicians to shun selfishness and activities that expose citizens’ lives and properties to danger.

The group also advised the electorate to elect competent people with high moral standard instead of electing people on tribal or religious sentiment.

While encouraging prospective leaders to keep their promises in ensuring adequate supply of food, housing, quality health care and security, the group bemoaned the “shoddy” arrangement of voters registration, noting that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) should have set a deadline for the registration exercise.
