Former President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, is expected in Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire, for the quarterly meeting of the West African Elders’ Forum as part of its advocacy missions for peaceful elections and good governance in the West African sub-region.
This meeting is coming barely three months before Nigeria’s general elections. Sierra Leone and Liberia are the other West African countries holding general elections in 2023.
The West African Elders’ Forum, the brainchild of the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, with support from the Open Society Foundation, was established to drive proactive consultations with stakeholders in the region toward preventing and resolving governance and election-related tensions. Since its inception in March 2021, the forum has successfully played an active role in mediating peaceful elections in The Gambia. It has also intervened in addressing political challenges in some countries by engaging key stakeholders and political leaders at the highest level.All rights reserved.
