By June 12, 2023, exactly one year from today, you will already have a new President. I remain committed and determined to ensure that the new President is elected through a peaceful and transparent process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is important for all of us to remember that June 12, 2023 will be exactly 30 years from the 1993 Presidential elections. In honour and memory of one of our national heroes of democracy, Chief <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/06\/13\/mko-abiola-remains-most-acceptable-nigerian-democrat-says-bala-mohammed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">M.K.O Abiola<\/a>, GCFR, we must all work together to ensure this transition is done in a peaceful manner. I am hopeful that we can achieve this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe signs so far are positive. Recently, all registered political parties conducted primaries to select their candidates for the 2023 general elections. These primaries were peaceful and orderly. Those who won were magnanimous in their victories. Those who lost were gracious in defeat. And those aggrieved opted to seek judicial justice as opposed to jungle justice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI followed the party primaries closely from the state level to the presidential level. I was very impressed to see across all the political parties that most candidates ran issue-based campaigns. The language and tone throughout were on the whole measured and controlled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am promising you a free, fair and transparent electoral process. And I am pleading with all citizens to come together and work with government to build a peaceful and prosperous nation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Buhari called on candidates in next year\u2019s elections to imbibe issues-based approach and desist from character assassination as campaigns officially begin in September.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we move into the general election campaign season, we must sustain this mature attitude to campaigning and ultimately, voting. We must never see it as a do-or-die affair. We must all remember democracy is about the will of the majority. There must be winners and losers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will therefore take this opportunity on this very special day to ask all candidates to continue running issue-focused campaigns and to treat opponents with dignity. As leaders, you must all showcase high character and never forget that the world is watching us and Africa looks up to Nigeria to provide example in governance. The tone you set at the top will surely be replicated in your followers,\u201d Buhari said.<\/p>\n<p>He said his government, in the last seven years, had made \u201csignificant investments to reform and enhance our electoral laws, systems, and processes to safeguard votes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While saying that his government was doing all within its power to safeguard the nation and protect citizens, Buhari urged Nigerians to play their part as security agencies could not shoulder the burden alone.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cOn this special day, I want us all to put all victims of terrorist activities in our thoughts and prayers. I am living daily with the grief and worry for all those victims and prisoners of terrorism and kidnapping. The security agencies and I are doing all we can to free those unfortunate countrymen and countrywomen safely.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we all unite, we will be victorious against these agents of terror and destruction. I will conclude this Democracy Day speech, my last as President, by assuring you of my commitment to protect Nigeria and Nigerians from all enemies from within and outside.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Muhammadu Buhari promised to facilitate a \u201cfree, fair and transparent electoral process\u201d in 2023 general elections in honour of the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, late MKO Abiola.
