According to PUNCH, Uba urged the corps members to be neutral, apolitical and patriotic, not to compromise, and to do the right thing during the election.
“Stay straightforward on issues, build bridges, and build relationships. You’re going to benefit from it later. It is one of the assets you’ll gather here, and it’s going to help you in the future,” she said.
The Director-General, adviced the corps members to take advantage of the election sensitisation programmes and training to gain knowledge.
She further appealed to all political actors to protect the corps members and put them first before their interests.
