Bloomberg quotes Africa Center Nonresident Senior Fellow Ricardo René Larémont on the upcoming Nigerian elections:
Dr. Ricardo Rene Laremont, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Africa Center, said the most positive role the U.S. can play in stabilizing the country is to urge unity.
“We have to remind him that the unity of Nigeria is essential not only to Nigeria, but also to international security,” Laremont said on the Jan. 22 call, referring to the eventual election winner. “I think that is the best role that the American government and the American electorate can play.”
