“I thank Mr President that he wants to leave a legacy of conducting a free and fair election.”
“My problem is INEC, whether they will do what they said they will do. They are making promises now. I don’t know whether they will keep to them.
“If INEC will keep to the promises that Nigeria will get a better election, I will be so happy. Everybody will see with their eyes, that Abuja does not vote. It is the people here that will vote."
