Nigeria’s Senate President, David Mark has predicted what will happen in Nigeria in the year 2015 after the general elections would have passed.

The Senate President in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja by his Chief Press Secretary, Paul Mumeh, expressed optimism that despite the growing anxiety and challenges ahead of the 2015 general elections, Nigeria would come out stronger and more united as a nation.

Mark reportedly made the assertion while playing host to the European Union (EU) Ambassador to Nigeria, Michel Arrion, Nation reports.
Mark assured that the Nigerian government has improved and indeed strengthened political institutions to withstand any storm no matter the circumstances.

“Our political situation is steadily progressing. All Nigerians are now more conscious and indeed aware of elections and the processes. Both the government and the governed are now doing the right thing to guarantee a free, fair and credible election. Steadily, Nigerians have learnt how to play the game according to the rules. I have no doubt that the 2015 elections would be better than our previous elections. It would comply with international best practices. It is going to be exciting and the whole world would appreciate that Nigeria is on the right track democratically,” Mark said.

The senate president, however, appealed to the international election observers to report facts about the elections without sentiment or narrow perspective, and urged the election observers to endeavor to go round in order to get the true position rather than a situation where reports would be based on just a visit to one or two polling units.
