Nigeria’s President Muhmmad Buhari has congratulated the New President-elect Of the United States Joe Biden.
President Buhari said the Election of Joe Biden on came at a time of uncertainty and fear in world affairs.
According to the President Biden’s election is a reminder that democracy is the best form of government because it offers the people the opportunity to change their government by peaceful means.
In a democracy, the most powerful group are not the politicians, but voters who can decide the fate of the politicians at the polling booth. The main fascination of democracy is the freedom of choice and the supremacy of the will of the people.

Respect for the will of the people is the very reason why democracy remains the best form of government, despite its limitations from one polity to another, and from one society to another.
President-Elect Biden’s remarkable track record gives us hope that he will add value to the presidency and world affairs. We look forward to greater cooperation between Nigeria and the United States, especially at economic, diplomatic, political and security levels.
President Muhmmad Buhari further urged Mr. Biden to deploy his vast experience in tackling the negative consequences of nationalist politics on world affairs—which have created divisions and uncertainties—and to introduce greater engagement with Africa on the basis of reciprocal respect and shared interests.
