He stressed that issue-based campaigning must take precedence over abusive rhetoric. Campaigns characterized by insults and unsubstantiated allegations would breach the party's code of ethics and create divisions ahead of the 2028 general elections.
The party has mechanisms in place to monitor the conduct and campaign messages of all aspirants.

He assured aspirants of a free, fair, and transparent electoral process.
