In
a statement issued by Chairman Board of Directors, NIDO U.S. Chapter, Ms
Patience Key, the elections placed Nigerians and Nigeria at a critical juncture
in the history of the nation’s democracy.

to the statement, happenings in their homeland also affected them wherever they
were in the world and pleaded that the focus on the leadership qualities of the
candidates and the stability of the country in the elections should not be
overlooked.

forward to credible elections to help sustain and strengthen our democracy. The
