In a statement issued and signed by the chief scribe, he warned that party executives who would engage in such acts would be punished.
He explained that such endorsements are in violation of Article 2(3) and 2(4) of the party’s constitution.
The statement further noted that in the Code of Conduct as stated in the Articles quoted, the prevention of party executives from endorsing candidates is to foster the spirit of healthy inter-party contests by guaranteeing equal opportunity for all stakeholders.
