The Independent National Electoral Commission has agreed to shift the Edo State governorship election by two weeks.
The decision to postpone the election was reached at a security meeting held in Benin, the Edo State capital this evening.
A national commissioner at the commission said the Chairman of the commission, Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, and other national officials of the commission are planning to address a press conference shortly.
Details later…
Modified: Elections now to hold on 24th of September 2016.

If you like make it four weeks, we have decided, CHANGE is constant. More troubles for Edo APC, CHANGE now begins with us, more votes added to PDP. Who knows, they would adjust the fuel pump price before then and add more disgrace to APC.

Just doing what APC promised, "if we don't perform, vote us out". Still preparing my stones for Buhari for turning the change to the masses.

I think it's high time we took security of lives and properties more serious than our personal political affiliations, prevention they say is always better than cure, for those of you who do not recide in Edo state but say what ever you like online, remember that there are youth corpers and other ad-hoc staff that would be deployed to the field, yes of which I'm one of them, remember that the general elections were postponed last year and Nigeria didn't breakup nor did it prevent who would have won from winning, please let's just take this as a precautionary step rather than attributing everything to politics.
