Nigeria's independent online newspaper
The International Press Centre says there is an urgent need to rebuild people’s trust in Nigeria’s democracy and electoral process.
“Perception-wise, misconception-wise, or reality-wise, it cannot be denied that some contentious issues arising from the 2023 elections have created mistrust among Nigerians.” Arogundade said.“As in journalism, bad news spreads faster than good news. Some of those challenges have elicited local and international observations including the one led by the European Union, Election Observation Mission , which highlighted elements of waning public confidence and trust in the electoral process.
On his part, Isaac Albert, the lead presenter, said disappointment with the outcome of the 2023 elections, hunger, insecurity, and workers’ restiveness, among other issues would negatively affect the participation of the electorate in future elections if trust is not rebuilt.
“We must build the spirit of economic and political nationalism that this country is ours and we must get it back,” Dantelle said.Mustaphar Tukur, Lagos director of the National Orientation Agency , said Nigeria’s problems are caused by the political elites and citizens.
