We Won't Shift The Elections Again-inec by Truth24(m): 6:23am On Feb 15, 2015
Independent National Electoral Commission
yesterday expressed confidence that there would
be no need for any further shift in the date of the
elections. This was just as it said it had received
ballot papers for the presidential and National
Assembly elections, denying a claim that it was only
result sheets that it had deposited in the vaults of
the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The commission had on February 7 announced the
rescheduling of the 2015 elections by six weeks to
March 28 and April 11, citing the commencement of
a military campaign against Boko Haram insurgents
in the North East on February 14.
It said this would make it unable to provide security
cover for the polls. Consequently, it adjusted the
timetable for the elections to accommodate the new
date in line with section 99(1) of the Electoral Act,
2010 (as amended).
According to a statement signed by the Secretary to
the Commission, Mrs. Augusta C. Ogakwu, the last
day for the presidential and National Assembly
campaign is now March 26 while the governorship
and House of Assembly candidates now have the
opportunity to continue their campaigns till April 9.
Also yesterday, INEC’s Director of Voter Education
and Publicity, Mr. Oluwole Osaze-Uzzi, confirmed
that ballot papers for the presidential and National
Assembly elections were in the commission’s
custody. “The chairman said it during the press
briefing. The ballot papers for the presidential
election are ready, there is no doubt about it,” he
said.
