President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday said that the signing
of the Peace Accord with ex-President Goodluck Jonathan in the build-up to the
2015 elections contributed hugely to the peaceful outcome of the polls.
Receiving the National Peace Committee (NPC), led by
Abdulsalami Abubakar, a former Head of State, at State House, Buhari called on
all the signatories to next year’s election Peace Accord and their supporters
to stand by its content and spirit.
This was disclosed in a statement by Buhari’s spokesman,
Femi Adesina.
Buhari said, “The timing of the First National Peace Accord
is significant considering political party campaigns have already commenced in
the country.
“I look forward to the second phase of the signing of the
National Peace Accord coming up in January 2023.
“You may recall that President Goodluck Jonathan and I
signed the first National Peace Accord before the 2015 elections.
“It’s my conviction that it contributed significantly to the
peaceful outcome of the 2015 election.”
