ttahiru Jega, chairman of the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC), is close to bowing to
fierce pressure by announcing a six-
week postponement of the February general
elections. However, even though Mr. Jega is all but certain
to do the bidding of President Goodluck Jonathan by setting
a latter date for the elections, our sources in the Presidency
insist that Mr. Jega will not survive as INEC chair much
longer if plans by the Presidency to sack him materialize.
SaharaReporters has consistently reported that President
Jonathan and his closest associates have been desperate
to postpone the elections to enable them to re-strategize in
the face of certain signs that Mr. Jonathan and his party
were on the cusp of losing by a wide margin.
Once Mr. Jega makes it official that the elections will be
postponed, Mr. Jonathan and members of his close-
knit kitchen cabinet plan to intensify their plot to plant an
interim government after successfully removing Mr. Jega
as INEC chairman. Mr. Jega’s tenure is scheduled to end in
June 2015.
Our sources reveal that the president and his team are
exploring several options to ease Mr. Jega out of his INEC
job. One option, according to a source embedded in the
Presidency, is to ask the INEC chair to go on “termination
leave” as early as the end of March, 2015. A second and
more potent strategy is to launch a series of
subterranean threats to his life and a series blackmail
strategies,including the use of sections of the Nigerian
media to accuse Mr. Jega of corruption in the award of
INEC contracts.
SaharaReporters learnt that the heads of
Nigeria’s security agencies, under direct instructions from
the Presidency, categorically told Mr. Jega yesterday
that they could not guarantee establishing a climate for free
and fair elections to hold in February. They also reportedly
warned Mr. Jega that they could not guarantee his personal
safety and those of other INEC staff should elections go
ahead on February 14th as currently scheduled.
The alarming pressure on Mr. Jega forced him to call a
meeting of political parties, non-governmental
organizations and resident electoral
commissioners in Abuja today. Although the meetings are
yet to end, Mr. Jega has confided in several people that he
was open to considering a six-week postponement.
One of our sources said President Jonathan’s aides had
bribed several briefcase political parties to go to INEC to
demand a postponement of the elections.
The real agenda of President Jonathan’s inner circle is
two-fold, according to information obtained from sources in
the Presidency. The first is a desperate desire to get tenure
extension at all cost through the backdoor. The second
is to buy enough time to prepare the army to help rig the
elections in favor of Mr. Jonathan should the incumbent
president and the PDP continue to face bleak prospects in
the polls.
Two sources at the Presidency disclosed that Petroleum
Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke was particularly rattled at
the prospect of Mr. Jonathan’s defeat. Ms. Alison-
Madueke, who has engineered several shady deals in the
oil sector that enabled her, Mr. Jonathan and a few cronies
to pocket billions of dollars, is described of deeply scared
of exposure and possible jail time should Mr. Jonathan
lose the elections. The sources said the Petroleum Minister
had persuaded Mr. Jonathan to sign off on her series of
corrupt deals in the oil sector by arguing that the billions of
dollars she was stealing would be used to guarantee re-
election for the president. The minister used several fronts,
including Jide Omokri, Kola Aluko, and Toye Cole in a
series of questionable deals. One of her fronts, Mr.
Aluko, who was also the minister’s lover, reportedly ran
away with more than $2 billion dollars after a jealous
Ms. Alison-Maduekebegan to hound him for dating former
supermodel Naomi Campbell.
A source close to the Presidency also disclosed that Mr.
Jonathan had struck a multibillion-dollar deal with Chadian
President Idris Deby to outsource the fight against Boko
Harm to Chad. With Chad now fighting Boko Haram on
Nigerian territory, President Jonathan and his backers
within the military would have enough troops to deploy to
help rig the elections, said the source.
The president has already deployed soldiers massively into
Lagos today to forestall any peaceful protests against the
postponement of elections.

After watching and listening to the Ekitigate video, nothing that comes out of presidency is any longer believable.

This postponement is their plan, Jega is the scapegoat that will carry the blame.

Forcing INEC to postpone the election is such a terrible thing for Mr Jonathan/PDP to do.

It damages his Presidency and ruins his legacy. Like people remember June 12, people will remember a President who, facing imminent defeat, forced the postponement of an election.

It is for people to decide who they want as their President. Saying you will never hand over power to a particular candidate, and in the process use every form of underhand action possible to deny millions of people their aspiration to choose a particular man as their leader is too bad.

Any victory by this President following postponement will be nothing but a pyrrhic victory. A false victory. A manipulated victory. A shallow, meaningless victory.

The principal motives for the postponement
of the election by the PDP cabals and the
viruses within the presidency is to oust out
Jega whose tenure expires in a months
time,so that they ll put their own machinery
as the INEC boss cos Jega to them is anti-
PDP because he sets measures in place that
ll give little or no room to rigging.All those
holding Nigeria to ransome ll soon die a
disastrous death! It is decreed and it shall
come to pass IJN.Amen

The problem is that, in this country, we hate the truth. We have always known Sahara Reporters to be the best investigative journalism outfit in Nigeria. But, all of a sudden, they are now lying, simply because they have been reveling the truth about PDP. We prefer to live in denial than to accept the truth as it is. That is to say, knowing the truth, but refusing to accept it because it doesn't soothe us.
