IBB urges INEC to shun Further Postponement of Elections
Former military President, Ibrahim Babangida has expressed his belief that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) will conduct elections without further postponement.
Babangida spoke in Minna on Saturday, while receiving members of the Arewa Citizens Action for Change. He also said Nigerians should not view insecurity as a problem restricted to only a particular zone of the country as it is a problem confronting the entire country.
He said: “I think people should not see the insecurity as restricted to North East alone; it is the problem of the entire country.
“Nigeria is under insurgency not only north east. Nigerians should see it from that perspective and for that; they should support the Military to end the insurgency.”
He also spoke on the postponement of the election dates, explaining that the elections would now be conducted peacefully after the six-week battle against the Boko Haram Insurgents.
He urged INEC to improve in the provision of information in respect of Permanent Voter Cards’, especially on where to collect them.
