» NIGERIA ELECTION POSTPONED
The Independent National Electoral Commission has announced a shift in the 2015 general election earlier scheduled for February 14 and 28. Announcing the postponement at a pres conference in Abuja on Saturday night, the chairman of the Commission, Attahiru Jega, said the presidential and national assembly elections will now hold on March 28 while the governorship and state assemblies election will take place on April 11.
This followed a series of meetings and consultation with stakeholders, civil society groups and the security apparatus of the country. However, speculations are rife that the presidency and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are behind the plot to frustrate the electoral umpire (INEC) to shift the election date to a more "favorable" dates.
INEC had earlier on Saturday began ADHOC staff education and training in various local government of the federation in anticipation of the earlier planned date of February 14 and 28 for the presidential/national assembly and governorship/state assembly elections respectively.
