I know of no government official of another country that has come into Nigeria to campaign for a candidate or party in Nigeria. Their interference is aimed at influencing the outcome of the forthcoming elections in Nigeria in favour of Mr. Buhari and his party. Last year, President Buhari gave priority to the construction of a rail line from Kano to Maradi and Zinder from whence the two Governors come. On the heels of these issues came the suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Mr. Walter Onnoghen, in a manner that suggests a hidden agenda. Nigeria is a sovereign country but there is nothing like absolute sovereignty because we live in an interdependent world.
