The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the US President-elect, Joe Biden.
Buhari said Biden’s election is a reminder that democracy is the best
form of government. The President disclosed this on Saturday evening
via his official Twitter handle after confirmation of Biden’s victory
“Congratulations to US President-Elect Joe Biden on his election at a time of uncertainty and fear in world affairs. His
election is a reminder that democracy is the best form of government
because it offers the people the opportunity to change their government
by peaceful means.
“In a democracy, the most powerful group are not the politicians,
but voters who can decide the fate of the politicians at the polling
booth. The main fascination of democracy is the freedom of choice and the supremacy of the will of the people,” Buhari tweeted.
The President of Nigeria added that respect for the will of the people is the best form of governance.
“Respect for the will of the people is the very reason why
democracy remains the best form of government, despite its limitations
from one polity to another, and from one society to another.”
