During
the visit, Clinton will meet President Muhammadu Buhari, who is the
presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress and Atiku
Abubakar, the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Though
details of the proposed visits were still sketchy on Monday, diplomatic
sources said that Clinton would return to his country the same day.
Clinton,
it was gathered, might arrive in the early hours of February 15 before
the two candidates would go to their states to cast their votes in the
election.
While President Buhari will vote in his home state of Katsina, Atiku will cast his vote in Adamawa state.
National
Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, confirmed the planned visit
by Clinton to the country, saying the former ruling party had been
informed.
“We
are aware; we have nothing to hide. All what we want is credible, fair
and acceptable elections. We also don’t want interference from anyone
concerning the workings of INEC and the security agents,” he said.
