The EU Ambassador to Nigeria, Samuela Isopi, who gave the assurance during a visit to Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki at the Government House in Benin City, said Nigeria’s progress is of importance as its partner and continental neighbor.
Isopi said the Union has supported the Independent National Electoral Commission and other stakeholders by providing technical assistance as well as expertise.
The envoy noted that Europe just like Nigerians are interested in free, fair and credible elections in Africa’s most populous nation.
On his part, Obaseki commended the EU for its partnership with Nigeria and sub-nationals like Edo State, even beyond politics.
