The Keynote Speaker, Prof. Linda Kwon–Ndung whose address was presented by Dr. Salisu Ogbo Usman, stressed that as the academia reflect on the theme of the Conference, the inherent issues involved in elections, security and nation building should be considered as collective responsibility, and urged conferees to communicate knowledge that can propel an all–inclusive democracy through credible elections.

Professor Samuel Egwu who spoke on behalf of the award recipients appreciated the leadership of the Nigerian Political Science Association (NPSA) North Central Zone led by Dr. John Tor Tsuwa for finding them worthy of the Merit recognitions, whilst reiterating that the award would in no small measure spur them to continue to support the growth and development of the Association.
