BREAKING NEWS: INEC Set To Postpone 2015 Elections by Rendition(m): 12:20pm On Feb 07, 2015
International news agencies are reporting that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has postponed the 2015 elections.



According to Associated Press, the February 14th and 28th elections are being postponed so “multinational force can secure Boko Haram areas”

Sky News also report the same thing saying the reason for the postponement is “to give a new multinational force time to secure areas under Boko Haram control”

INEC is yet to release a press statement on the development

I knew INEC was going to postpone the election. The pressure was just too much on them.

If the votes of people currently being disenfranchise will affect the outcome of the presidential and state election then it is only rational that inec reschedule the dates so that government and international forces can secure those territories, giving registered voters the opportunity to either vote change or continue transformation.
But why will government wait till the eleventh hour before securing these territories under BH control?
Anyway #GEJtill2019.

He will secure in six weeks what he had not been able to secure in six months! What about all the displaced Nigerians in Chad, Niger and Cameron? My guess is that he will need more than six months to bring all of them back.
We all know this postponement is not about the displaced people in the NE, Just a ploy to buy a little more time and delay his own imminent defeat.
