<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>President of Niger Republic, Mahamadou Issoufou, said on Thursday that the people of his country were apprehensive during the last general elections in Nigeria because of the history of electoral violence  on the African continent.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking with journalists after a closed door meeting with President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, at the Defence House, Abuja, Issoufou said they were grateful to God that the announcement of the results did not result in any conflict.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Nigerien leader said his visit to Abuja was to congratulate the President-elect on his victory in the presidential election.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said: "I also came to congratulate President Goodluck Jonathan on the elections because he has played a great role by accepting the presidential election results.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"If you can remember, whenever there is an election in Africa, we always have disputes and crises in some instances after results were declared. But we thank God that the Nigerian elections were conducted peacefully and peace was maintained afterwards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We became apprehensive in Niger before the announcement of the results because of the history of post election crisis in Africa. So we came to felicitate with the people of Nigeria for having a peaceful election. We conveyed the goodwill of the people of Niger and its leadership to you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"So we congratulate Buhari on his victory and wish him God's guidance. We only pray for peace and prosperity for all our countries. We also hope that his election will bring development and good fortunes to Nigeria and the whole of Africa. You know Nigeria is the engine room of not only West Africa but the whole African continent".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In his remarks, Buhari said "the Nigerien President purposely came to congratulate me on my victory and President Jonathan for the maturity and statesmanship that he exhibited by accepting that he has lost the election.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"His action actually doused tensions and averted crisis in Nigeria. Not only Africa, the world has commended the President for that. This is because if he had disputed the elections, there would have been a crisis in the country. That is what people don't want, not only Nigerians but other countries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"So he came to commend President Jonathan for his courage and statesmanship. He also came to greet us on our victory. As he rightly puts it, if Nigeria sneezes, the rest of Africa catches cold, because of its importance, population and resources".</div>
