Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has commended the National Assembly, civil societies and Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over the resolution of the disagreement on electronic transmission of election results.
The 2019 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said that the harmonization of positions between the two institutions – INEC and National Assembly – is an indication that Nigeria’s democracy is growing and getting stronger.
Atiku also commended individuals and groups particularly the various pro-democracy advocacy groups that participated in the public discourse on the controversial issue.
“By this outcome, I am convinced that public institutions in Nigeria will continue to play their roles as guardians of public policy,” he said.
“The civil societies are the watchdogs of public policies and the institutions. Probably, we would not have come to this path without the active engagement of the civil society agents. This outcome should further encourage Nigerians and the civil society to do more in order to guarantee good governance in the country.”
