In his words, “We are here to work together with you as members of the African Union observer team for the upcoming presidential, national assembly, governorship, as well as State Assembly elections. We are here as members, brothers, and sisters.

He added, “One thing which I have noted in particular is President Buhari’s personal commitment towards a free, fair and transparent election. This is something he has been talking about at various intervals.”

He noted that there are challenges that affect various parts of the world, not just Africa, for various reasons.

“There are many challenges and we all know that. And those challenges are not peculiar to Nigeria. But at the end of the day, what we want is that the eventual outcome of these elections reflects the will of the people of this great country of Nigeria,” Kenyatta said.
