MARCH 21, 2023

Nigeria carried out the second round of its electoral process with gubernatorial and state assembly elections on March 18. The United States is deeply troubled by the disturbing acts of violent voter intimidation and suppression that took place during those polls in Lagos, Kano, and other states. of the U.S. diplomatic mission observed the elections in Lagos and elsewhere and witnessed some of these incidents first-hand. The use of ethnically charged rhetoric before, during, and after the gubernatorial election in Lagos was particularly concerning. We commend all Nigerian political actors, religious and community leaders, youth, and citizens who have chosen to reject and speak out against such violence and inflammatory language, affirming Nigerians’ commitment to and respect for the democratic process.

We call on Nigerian authorities to hold able and bring to justice any individuals found to have ordered or carried out efforts to intimidate voters and suppress voting during the election process. The United States likewise will consider all available actions, including additional visa restrictions, on individuals believed to be responsible for, or complicit in, undermining the democratic process in Nigeria.

Following the February 25 national elections, the United States ed other international observers in urging the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to improve voting processes and technical elements that experienced flaws in that voting round. The March 18 elections appear to have had significant operational improvements, as polling stations generally opened on time and most results were visible on an electronic viewing platform in a timely manner.

The United States renews its call for any challenges to election results to go through established legal processes, which must not be interfered with. We further call for Nigeria’s people to work together as they participate in and continue to strengthen the country’s vibrant democracy.

They should start by deporting MC Oluomo's children. How can a man destroy other people's children with thuggery and send his to best schools in the world?

We dey dare them

We are tired of hearing that without action

USA sometimes behave as if they're the only country in the world. Their house is in turmoil yet they keep trying to police other nations.

SmartPolician:
They should start by deporting MC Oluomo's children.

How can a man destroy other people's children with thuggery and send his to best schools in the world?

The tribalist bigots are rushing to retract their divisive statements because they plan to retire in the U.S. with their families after looting the national coffers mercilessly for the next 4 years.

MC Oluomo, Wike, should top the list.

OBIDIENTS GO PRESS NECKS AND THEY WILL FEEL IT.

Nothing new here! According to Trump, last American's elections was the worst ever conducted yet it stood in as much as many were unhappy with it.
American can go to hell for all I care.

No be today US have been threatening visa ban on electoral malpractice individuals but they don't take it serious and at the end na dem those politicians dey carry our funds go save for their banks there and even buy properties

hmmmm

Nice move.

Ban anyone with Yoruba name

Go back to your country and face your own democrazyness wahala
Nonsense

This one para

Devotional1:
MC Oluomo who's kids are lodged safely in the US while he incites other people's children to carry out violent acts, sorry

Don't tell me you believe this ? This isn't the first time US is releasing such statements before and after Nigerian elections. But at last nothing go happen.

Nice one

Yahaya Bello and Elrufai come to mind

All Obidient influencers should be banned from entering US. Those guys have Phd in propaganda. Their mumu followers are dependent thinkers, anywhere belle face.

Lagos state was largely free and fair, out of 13,300 polling units, less than 50 polling units had crisis.

Him no fit win his polling unit.

Some mumu Obidients still believe Peter Obi scored 25% in Kwara, Kogi, Niger, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Jigawa, Sokoto, Zamfara, Yobe, Adamawa, Borno, Gombe, Bauchi (14 states) because of the presence of Igbo and Christians. That's why Obi campaigned in Christian dominated area eg. Kafachan in Kaduna State, Biu in Borno, Sabon Gari in Kano, Kaltungo in Gombe, Mubi in Adamawa etc.

They are still claiming 25% in Osun, Ondo, Ogun, Ekiti & Oyo because of Lagos victory.

1. Prof Mahmood Yakubu
2. Wike
3. MC Oluomo
4. Sanwo Olu
5. Sen Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu
6. Femi Fani Kayode
7. All APC Politicians etc.

Peter Obi should be number one

Shame on the Mandate thief Bola Tinubu

And all those who use thuggery and violence to suppress the will of the Nigerian people, your time is coming to an end

Wike your name is definitely going to be on the list

Tinubu your name will be on the list. No congratulations for you from Biden.

The stolen Mandate must be returned by BAT the mandate thief


Stealing the Village drum is easy, but finding a place to beat it peacefully is the problem oo ---African Proverb

These are mere threats

Deport their families and all their relatives, before I can take you serious

Pandora pathological liar Obi tuary should be number on the list.
The whole world have seen the way they were beating APC voters in the SE.
Pandora lying SOB has done more damage the democracy in Nigeria than most can imagine.

Lol. Believe this at your peril.

Lock at morons praising this news.

In this part of the world is sad that people are just ignorant and oblivious of how things really work.

Is there still anyone who respects and believes the US keeps 💯 to their words.

Nigerians please CNN,BBC
Are not the only news channel,

WION, redacted on YouTube are better place to get unbiased news .

That way you would know how things really work.

US and Hypocrism!

The just concluded election is the best in the history of our country, it is a true reflection of the wish of the electorates. A winner and a loser will always emerge in every election.
