Dogara To Buhari: Posterity Will Judge You With Electoral Reforms, 2023 Elections

President Muhammadu Buhari can etch his name in gold as a hero of Nigeria’s democracy if he follows through with the reforms of the nation’s electoral process, the immediate past Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has said.

Dogara who commended the president for  what he described as “radical  reforms” of Nigeria’s electoral process, especially with the introduction of the Bimodal Verification Accreditation System (BVAS) into the election process, said it is a challenge to all Nigerians to ensure that the reforms are implemented in the 2023 general elections.

The Chancellor of Achievers University, Owo, Ondo State, spoke yesterday at the 12th Convocation ceremony of the university.

“Permit me to commend President Muhammadu Buhari for ensuring radical reforms in the  electoral process. I say this from my heart, especially with regards to the use of BVAS.

“If he follows it through, he will bequeath to us a legacy of democratic process that has no parallels in Africa.

“I, therefore, say that President Buhari has a date with history and he can truly be the hero of our democracy if he ensures that our votes count in 2023.

“Thereafter, we can now beat our chest and say we have not only elected leaders in elections where our votes count, but we have elected leadership that we deserve. It is a challenge to all Nigerians to ensure that we carry through the reforms and follow them across to the finish line, “ Dogara said.
