President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday said despite the violence currently being experienced in parts of the country, the 2015 general elections would be peaceful and transparent.

The President said, “I know that one thing that is dear to your hearts is what the elections in this country will look like next year.
“But let me use this unique opportunity to reassure you and I am conveying this to my brothers, your heads of government, that our elections next year will be free and fair.
“It will be very peaceful in nature that will even surprise the whole world.”
Jonathan said with ugly incidents globally, there was need for constant prayers for divine intervention.
He regretted that more members of the society were choosing the wrong path and were being used by evil forces to wreak havoc.
“Let us take the opportunity of this season to ask Allah to forgive them and guide them back to the path of righteousness and holiness.
“I request Your Excellencies and all Muslims and Christians that, as you pray this period, especially during the night of Majesty, we pray for peace and security to reign throughout the world.
“Let us also pray for Allah to guide our leaders and grant them good health and wisdom to work for the progress of their respective countries,” the President added.
