In his remarks, Dr Boako highlighted that the upcoming elections present an opportunity for citizens to critically evaluate the candidates' contributions to governance and public service. 

He encouraged voters to look beyond party affiliations and focus on the practical impact of each candidate's past actions and policies.

“These are two leaders. Let us judge them based on what they have done before to believe or otherwise what they are saying they will do in future,” he urged.
