The spokesperson for the Northern Elders Forum, Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, speaks to DANIEL AYANTOYE about his assessment of the elections, governance and the incoming government
about his assessment of the elections, governance and the incoming governmentLike all responsible Nigerians, the Northern Elders Forum is watching developments very closely. We have our worries and concerns. If you have noticed, we kept silent over all the issues from the elections because we believe what we owe the nation at this stage is to be responsible in terms of what we say.
Based on the reservations people have with the conduct of the election, many candidates may end up in court, should we applaud? I think a lot of politicians are just going to waste more of their money. There are many of them who know they have lost fair and square but it has become a Nigerian tradition that almost every politician who loses an election must go to court.
