Former President Goodluck Jonathan has called for sweeping electoral reforms in Nigeria to deepen democracy and restore public trust in the electoral system.
Speaking through the Executive Director of the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, Ms. Ann Iyonu, he made the remarks during the launch of the National Action Plan for Electoral Reform in Nigeria, organized by Dr. Sam Amadi of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought.
Jonathan emphasized that while Nigeria has made progress since its return to democracy in 1999, the electoral process remains flawed and in urgent need of reform.
“If we are truly committed to democracy, we must be bold enough to reform the process to better reflect the will of the people and the principles of justice, accountability, and inclusion,” he said.
