A former President of South Africa, Mr Thabo Mbeki, has urged all stakeholders in the 2023 election
to uphold their commitment to ensuring peaceful and inclusive polls with fundamental freedoms of
expression, association and assembly fully respected.
Mr Mbeki, the Chairperson of the 2023 commonwealth observer group, made the call in Abuja at the
arrival briefing of the election observation group.
He explained that the commonwealth has a long tradition of supporting the country’s democratic
development through election observation and has been in the country since last week and would
monitor the conduct of Political parties and INEC as well.
Mr Mbeki said the group would meet with the Inspector General of Police and INEC to assess their
level of preparedness for the election.
He said the group would work with other observer groups to ensure total country coverage.
The Chairperson of the commonwealth election observers group also said that the group would
consider all factors relating to the credibility of the electoral process.
