  "summary": "The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) chieftain, Yakubu Kingsley, has urged political parties and candidates contesting the 2027 general elections to focus on issue-based campaigns and avoid personal attacks, character assassination, and divisive rhetoric. Kingsley emphasized that the campaigns should be seen as an opportunity to present clear, practical, and credible policies that address the country's challenges. He called for a contest of ideas, vision, competence, and capacity, rather than insults, hatred, or division, stressing that Nigerians deserve a more constructive and respectful electoral process.",
