President of the African Children Talent Discovery Foundation (ACTDF), Dr. Noah Dallaji, has called on Nigerians to maintain peace following the conduct of the presidential and National Assembly elections.

Dallaji, who made the call after voting at his Wornu1 Pry School Polling unit 015, Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area of Bauchi State, noted the emotion and interest generated by the historic election, saying the outcome would be a major test of the nation's democracy.
He, however, said the election can only produce one president as he urged Nigerians to be peaceful and act in accordance with the spirit of national unity.

He also alluded to the unusual presence of notable international observers which, he said, was an indication of how critical the election and outcome was to the world, adding that such importance should also be reflected in the conduct of all citizens as a mark of the nation's democratic advancement.

"Of course, the tension and interest generated by this year's election is quite understandable. That's the spirit of all elections anywhere and in particular the level of competition in this election.

Yet, in the midst of it all, it is incumbent on all Nigerians to maintain peace and forge unity as basis for a better tomorrow.

"In spite of some reported hitches and delays, I think we should have an overall outcome that reflects the wishes of the people and that should be of interest to all. Yes, the concern should be about a free, fair and transparent process", he stated.
