The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.), has urged Nigerians to vote for their candidates of choice in the February 25 and March 11 elections, assuring them that their votes will count.
He said this while assuring Nigerians that sufficient security had been put in place to guarantee a smooth, free, fair and credible election. On Thursday, Buhari made this announcement on a national broadcast from the State House in Abuja.
The President said, “I urge every citizen, therefore, to go out to vote for their candidates of choice without fear, because security shall be provided and your vote shall count.
“I however admonish you to eschew violence and avoid actions capable of disrupting the electoral processes.”
Buhari declared that the new Naira policy put in place by the Central Bank of Nigeria has reduced money politics while announcing the new April 10 deadline for the circulation of the old N200 notes.
“I am aware that this new monetary policy has also contributed immensely to the minimization of the influence of money in politics.
“This is a positive departure from the past and represents a bold legacy step by this administration, towards laying a strong foundation for free and fair elections,” he said.
