United States Is Compiling Reports On 2019 Elections by ZUBY77(m): 7:20am On Mar 13, 2019
The United States Government has said it is compiling reports ins the 2019 general elections in order to give a proper response.
The Assistant Secretary of State, Bureau of African Affairs, Tibor Nagy, stated this in a telephone press conference on Tuesday, adding that US was actively involved with political happenings in the country, particularly regarding the 2019 election.
According to Nagy, during the build-up to the elections, the US Ambassador, Stuart Symington, and his team took many steps to ensure that things went smoothly, adding that in the pre-election period, in the election period and currently in the post-election period, they are providing phenomenal guidance to Washington on how the US Government should and should not respond to the election-related matters.
Nagy said: “So, just rest assured that the United States of America Embassy and the Consulate in Lagos, are actively involved and are doing an absolutely superb job to monitor events and to provide guides on how Washington should react to whatever the events there are.

“As you know, our secretary did make a telephone call.”
It would be recalled that the United States Secretary of State, Michael Pompeo, was reported to have placed a call across to the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, for a free, fair and credible election in the country while President Donald Trump called Buhari prior to the presidential and National Assembly elections.
The US also threatened to place a visa ban on persons involved in electoral violence.
The US Government had said: “We, and other democratic nations, will be paying close attention to actions of individuals who interfere in the democratic process or instigate violence against the civilian population before, during, or after the elections.
“We will not hesitate to consider consequences –including visa restrictions – for those found to be responsible for election-related violence.”
