Accompanied by the APC National Publicity Secretary, Barr Felix Morka, Director of Organisation, Prof. Ussiju Medaner and other members of the UNEAD delegation, Kubwimana said they were at the APC headquarters to express their intent to contribute to a peaceful and inclusive process next year.
“The country has strong institutions and the ability to run its elections. There are issues of course, but Nigeria is not the only place where you see issues around elections. So our role again here is to see how we can support one of our member states,” the UN said.
