For you to have a good democracy, you need to have a good electoral law. Our electoral law is not perfect, just like your own is not perfect,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut our goal is to make it perfect. That\u2019s why in the ninth assembly, we try to see that we make our electoral act to be perfect. We took our time to be thorough without sacrificing anything.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, we\u2019re at the threshold of history. We want to have an electoral act that is acceptable to the majority of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/11\/03\/two-nigerians-face-14-year-jail-term-in-ireland-over-unemployment-scam\/\">Nigerians<\/a>. We want an electoral act that does not compromise the sovereignty of Nigeria. That\u2019s key to us. Nigeria is a very plural society in terms of religion and ethnicity. These are some of the considerations we have to make.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gbajabiamila, who congratulated the new head of EU mission in Nigeria on her appointment, said \u201cI believe with a lot of collaboration, we can do a lot and greater things together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On her part, Isopi said the visit was to introduce herself as the new head of mission of EU in Nigeria, and to give assurances of EU\u2019s commitment to strengthening its partnership with Nigeria, and the national assembly, as well as to formally announce the coming of a special mission later in November.<\/p>\n<p>She said since 1999, the union had been a major partner in promoting Nigeria\u2019s democracy, especially in the area of supporting the national assembly on electoral matters, women and the youth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have closely followed the developments here, and I\u2019ll like to applaud the approach that the national assembly has taken in the electoral amendment. We\u2019ll continue to support democratic governance and institutions in Nigeria,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker of the house of representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila has revealed that the ninth national assembly is working to ensure that the electoral act amendment bill does not compromise Nigeria&#8217;s sovereignty, when signed into law.
