President Muhammadu Buhari has on Wednesday disclosed that based on his past experiences he had with military and civilian rule in the country,he had concluded that Multi-Party democracy is the Best.
The President made this known while playing a host to a delegation of the Universal Peace Federation at State House, Abuja.
He wondered why some African countries were still descending into the abyss of unconstitutional change of government, saying “I thought we had finally put that behind us.”
On the Peace Summit being planned for Abuja, to bring all African countries together before the end of this administration, President Buhari pledged Nigeria’s support, “relative to resources, to help in stabilizing neighboring countries.”
He decried the problems in the Sahel belt of the continent, lamenting that it is of great concern, as it affects both agriculture and businesses negatively.
The President described the interest of Universal Peace Federation Africa in the continent as “quite genuine,” saying he was very pleased at the development.
