The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, gave government’s assurance in Abuja when he received Maria Arena, the Chief Observer, European Union Election Observation Mission (EU EOM) for the 2019 General elections, on a courtesy call, reiterating the promise of credible elections.
Mr. Onyeama said President Buhari has been in the receiving end of what is believed to have been unfair elections in the past and he does not want to have elections that can in anyway be criticised under his watch.
He added that as the chair of ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government, the President is making effort to ensuring that every member state has a democratically elected government.
This assurance is coming barely a day after former President Olusegun Obasanjo accused the government, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and INEC of plotting to rig the presidential election.
