Former President of the United States, Bill Clinton, has spoken on phone with President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a statement in Abuja on Thursday, presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, said that the two spoke on telephone on Wednesday night.
Describing Clinton as a friend of the country, Buhari thanked the former US leader for his continuous support for Nigeria and the growth of her democracy.
He also assured Clinton of his commitment to free, fair and credible elections in the weeks ahead.
“President Clinton, who regretted his inability to visit the country to witness the signing of the final peace accord before the general elections, wished Nigeria well as her citizens go to the polls,’’ the statement revealed.
Clinton reneged on his plan to witness the signing of a second Peace Accord by presidential candidates on Wednesday.
The event, however, was witnessed by three former African Presidents from Liberia, Tanzania and Bostwana.
