Former President of Nigeria at the head of a high-powered delegation of eminent persons of ECOWAS on Wednesday, November 15, 2023 called on the Standard Bearer of the Unity Party Ambassador Joseph Nyuma Boakai to discuss post-election matters.
In a brief meeting with the Former Vice President, Ex-Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan congratulated the people of Liberia for the process that went peaceful and awaiting the outcome of the polls by the NEC.
The ECOWAS Elders Council observed that following the election on Tuesday, party stalwarts out of exuberance and desperation on both sides took to the streets claiming victory which in the view of the delegation was premature.
The delegation praised the people of Liberia for reaching this far in the electoral process. They recounted the inspiring message that the Unity Party Standard Bearer delivered following the close of the campaign for the run-off.
They noted that the message to supporters, sympathizers and partisans was an act of leadership especially as regards restraining themselves during this critical period.
Responding, the Unity Party Standard Bearer pointed out that ECOWAS continues to make contribution in Liberia’s development process. He re-emphasized that the Unity Party Alliance will abide by the laws and wait for the official NEC pronouncement.
