Independent National Electoral commission
(INEC) chairman Prof Attahiru Jega yesterday
raised the alarm that elections might not hold in
the NorthEast.
According to him, unless there is an
improvement in the security situation in Borno
Yobe and Adamawa states, ravaged by
insurgency, the chances that election will hold in
the troubled states are slim.
Jega, whospoke at a forum in Abuja, organised
by the African Policy Research Institute, said: “A
place like Borno State, unless something is
done about those that have been displaced,
even return for the governorship might be
difficult, if not impossible under the
circumstances. To be realistic, we must say that
it may be impossible to do elections
everywhere, in every local government, in every
constituency in those three states”.
This is contrary to the assurance given the
commission that it was prepared to conduct
elections in all the states of the federation.
