The Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung has reacted to the death of a corps member, Okonta Samuel murdered by gunmen during the last Saturday's rerun election in Rivers Rerun.
Dalung said the death of youths during elections was becoming a “recurring decimal”.
He further stated that the acts of violence during elections in the country was not only condemnable, but also a reflection of “primitive political culture”.
Dalung said at no point should officials and spectators of a game be made to be casualties of that game and as leaders, politicians must conduct themselves properly and hold life as sacred.
He said: “Nigerian politicians must respect the rules of the game.
“We assure Nigerians that under this administration of change, impunity will not be celebrated".
