We’ll watch Nigeria’s 2027 elections like a hawk, recommend sanctions for riggers – US firm
A United States lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, L.C., says the US needs to watch the Nigerian 2027 presidential election like a hawk.
In a post on its verified X handle on Thursday, Von Batten-Montague-York, L.C. said it would also recommend sanctions for those that would engage in rigging the exercise.
It expressed gratitude to the US Congress for calling out the ‘corrupt and complicit’ administration of President Bola Tinubu during Thursday’s congressional hearing about Nigeria.
The firm stated that Nigerian people must have free and fair elections that allow them to choose a government that can truly end the killings and kidnappings.
It accused President Tinubu and his administration of actively working to circumvent the will of the Nigerian people and rig the upcoming presidential election, an action it said would only lead to more kidnappings and murders.
“We need to be watching the Nigerian presidential election like a hawk! We especially thank the amazing Rep. Riley Moore for his powerful words and warning.
“President Tinubu has no intention of saving the lives of innocent Nigerians. The time for the United States to act is now,” the firm tweeted.
