INEC boss Prof. Attahiru Jega has briefed the media on the outcome of the meeting he had with Nigeria Stakeholders as regards to the forth-coming elections.
Jega stated that;
The 2015 general elections has been postponed by 6 weeks. The decision was made after briefings with various stakeholders notably political parties, security agencies, civil society and the media. 26 out of the 28 registered parties were at the meeting. And blamed the postponement on lack of security and collection of PVC. He said only 66% of the 96% PVCs has been collected
The presidential election is scheduled to hold on 28th of March while the Governorship election will now take place on 11th of April 2015.
Hope this is not an attempt to disrupt the authenticity of the election results and to trample on democracy? See tweets from INEC after the cut...
