Despite litany of criticisms trailing the conduct of the February 25 presidential election, the outgoing British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, has said the process was reflective of Nigeria’s positive development in democracy.
Laing, who stated this during her visit to Senate President, Ahmed Lawan and Femi Gbajabiamila, the House of Representatives Speaker, on Tuesday, also hailed the impact of Electoral Act 2022 on the February 25 exercise.
The British envoy claimed the election, regardless of percieved shortcomings, portended bright future for the country.
