I call on @NGRPresident @MBuhari to end the uncertainty by signing, without delay, the 2018 #ElectoralBill. This would allow @INECNigeria and all concerned parties to prepare on time for a credible process in the upcoming General Election.

My position remains that the @NGRPresident, his aides, the entire country and the international community are aware that all the concerns raised by the @NGRPresident on the past three occasions he withheld assent to the #ElectoralBill have been addressed by the legislature.
We bent backwards on each occasion to accommodate the wishes of the President on the #ElectoralBill. We started work on this law since 2016 to prevent a situation where it would become part of the election controversies.
Every sincere commentator, observer and analyst knows that what we have done with the #ElectoralBill is to raise the level of transparency, credibility and acceptability of our electoral process.
We made sure that if the #ElectoralBill is assented to and honestly applied by @INECNigeria, we will have an election that would be more transparent than what we had in 2015.
Therefore, the @NGRPresident should know that the survival of democracy, its development and the future of Nigeria are far more important than the ambition of any individual or party.
