As Nigeria move closer to the 2023 general elections, three of the main actors, Labour party candidate, Peter Obi, chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Mahmood Yakubu, and the New Nigeria Peoples Party’s (NNPP) flagbearer, Rabiu Kwankwaso, will be guests at the Chatam House research event.
The independent policy institute headquartered in London is aimed at providing commentary on world events and proferring solutions to global challenges.
Peter Obi is set to kick start the event on Tuesday themed Nigeria’s 2023 elections: A vision for policy change and institutional reforms.
The former governor of Anambra State will speak on his vision for policy and governance reforms in Nigeria, including the priorities for tackling deep-rooted insecurity and corruption, and measures to promote social and political mobility for Nigerian citizens.
Recall that last month, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, addressed the British Royal Institute on matters relating to the 2023 general elections.
The INEC boss, Professor Yakubu, will next take the stage on Tuesday, where he will discuss Nigeria’s preparations and priorities for ensuring electoral integrity and inclusivity.
He will also touch on the key challenges and plans for the conduct of the elections, including election security and the use of new technological systems.
While Kwankwaso, on Wednesday, will round off the discourse on Nigeria’s 2023 elections and political developments.
The leader of NNPP will discuss his policy ideas for improving systems and services in the country, with a particular focus on the education sector and the wider priorities for ensuring secure and inclusive service delivery.
