In an additional tweet, Moghalu mentioned that Nigerians should be cautious when arguing with other people because the politicians they are debating for or against usually wine and dine with each other.
He went on to state that Nigerians should go ahead and make “informed choices” in the coming general elections.
The latter part of his tweet reads;
“Intolerance, on/off social media, is wrong. The politicians you are fighting & killing each other for wine & dine with each other across party lines. Be wise! Nigerians reserve the right to vote for any candidate of their choice in a democracy. Just make informed choices.”
