In order to show the importance of Nigeria in our democracy, as of today, we have 84 million registered voters but Nigeria is one out of 15 countries in the sub-region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut, the total number of registered voters in the other 14 countries put together, is 73m, meaning that Nigeria has 11 million voters more than other countries in the sub-region put together.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cEach time Nigeria conducts a general election, is like a general election in the whole of West Africa. So, we appreciate the enormous responsibility the commission is charged with.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe election is both national and international. We have very good working relationship with strategic partners and allies in the country. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe work very closely with the political parties, civil society organisations, media, security agencies in the country but at the same time, we also work closely with our friends in the international community such as UNOWAS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I want to assure you that we will continue to do what is right on the basis of the law; the ultimate choice is going to be made by Nigerians. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigerians will determine who they want in the 2023 general election and we will continue to uphold the choice made by Nigerians,\u201d Yakubu said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has assured the international community that the will of the people will not be subverted in next year&#8217;s election.
