Former President Goodluck Jonathan has observed that the country has made tremendous progress in deepening democratic values since the inception of the Fourth Republic.
Jonathan, in a paper he read at National Defence College Course 30 Inauguration Lecture in Abuja as the guest speaker, also said that although democracy might not have all the answers to national challenges, it narrowed the space for strife and conflicts.
In the paper entitled: “Human Security and National Development: The Whole Society Approach”, he noted that Nigerians wanted more to be done by politicians to make democratic rule work better.
Jonathan also said that the bid by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to introduce more electronic means in the conduct of elections would enhance the electoral body’s processes in the conduct of free and fair elections.
