STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE
STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT BUHARI ON THE POSTPONEMENT OF GENERAL ELECTIONS BY INEC

I am deeply disappointed that despite the long notice given and our preparations both locally and internationally, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) postponed the Presidential and National Assembly elections within hours of its commencement.

Many Nigerians have traveled to various locations to exercise their right to vote, and international observers are gathered.

INEC themselves have given assurances, day after day and almost hour after hour that they are in complete readiness for the elections. We and all our citizens believed them.
This administration has ensured that we do not interfere in any way with the work of INEC except to ensure that all funds were released to the commission.

We now urge INEC to ensure not only that materials already distributed are safe and do not get into wrong hands, but that everything is done to avoid the lapses that resulted in this unfortunate postponement, and ensure a free and fair election on the rescheduled dates.
While I reaffirm my strong commitment to the independence, neutrality of the electoral umpire and the sanctity of the electoral process and ballot, I urge all political stakeholders and Nigerians to continue to rally round INEC at this trying national moment in our democratic journey.

I, therefore, appeal to all Nigerians to refrain from all civil disorder and remain peaceful, patriotic and united to ensure that no force or conspiracy derail our democratic development.

I have decided to move back to Abuja to ensure that the 14.00 hrs meeting called by INEC with all stakeholders is successful.

Muhammadu Buhari

Hopefully, INEC will get its inefficient act together and deliver a free, fair, and credible elections next week. The postponement is a very bitter pill to swallow for most of us. Nigeria is our country and we have no other country to run to. Even if I’m giving a free Canadian visa, I will still remain in Nigeria. Therefore, we must learn to always get things right.

Desperate politicians on all sides should also stop playing politics with this national embarrassment. The shame of this postponement is on all Nigerians. We must all rally round INEC at this critical time to ensure a successful election next week.

When you deploy square pegs in round holes you end up haivng queer results .

Yes, where the dullard in chief will be sent packing. Right?

They are only postponing the inevitable.

He planned it..
He planned and put Amina Zakari as chairman logistics..
He planned that INEC chairman blame it on logistics..
But he never planned to deceive Nigerians, cause Nigerians know that the chairman blamed for the failure of logistics is related to Buhari...

God bless incoming President

Sincerely, I think Buhari is not happy with the postponement. The man is not in charge. I suspect people like Tinubu, Amaechi and that ugly thing from Edo

The world is watching!!

INEC = APC PARTY

ATIKU: INEC GAVE APC-CANDIDATE THE CONTRACT TO MANUFACTURE 100,000 COMPROMISED CARD READERS TO BE USED FOR ELECTION. (PROOF)

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD.
*Election PVC Card readers are compromised.
*Sensitive materials have been distributed.

Incompetence on the path of INEC.

Remember how the man was fumbled about the date of election for 100 years sometime ago.

Only 4years , you can't perform.

Nigeria, we will survive.

Whatever the reason,
I suggest with permission of the Benin Republic, USA warplanes should station there facing the zoo. 1 week to go?
Plenty of time.

God punish all of you Apc

All na planned work

Check my siggy if you need iPhone xr

The INEC Chairman should honourable resign.

Stop appealing to Nigerians my friend. Can't you see how you have made many Nigerians travel because of your incompetence? Just get lost old MAN.

Always know Nigerians have Atikulated Obidiently.

Hmm..

This postponement may be a blessing in disguise to AA. All sane Nigerians must come together and make Nigeria work again.

It's not a bad idea for you to still enjoy the office for a week Oga Buhari. Your days are numbered

Nice speech from him tho, but am I the only one seeing the expression above as a confused face or it's my eye

I pray for a great Nigeria, anyway possible

The already distributed sensitive materials will be compromised.

Thugs will steal sensitive materials and soon we will hear more fire out breaks in the coming days. INEC boss is callous and irresponsible to postpone few hours to polls.

Oga remain in Daura no need of going back anywhere

Dehmn!
If it is not today, it can never be like today...seriously;

SeverusSnape:

Yes, where the dullard in chief will be sent packing. Right?

If majority of voters vote for regime change, so be it. Democracy is a a government of the people, for the people, and by the people. Once the people decides, we must respect their decision.

I am sure Buhari is just being aware of the postponement.

Vote Buhari out to save Nigeria from the cabal.

You will still go back to Daura

About 14 bags of ballot papers seized in Kano truncated Ganduje's plan to give Buhari 4million votes. That is why the election was postponed in order for them to re-strategize and possibly, send order from above to IG of police to tell his boys to release the ballot papers.

Nonsense

Nnawah o.. buhari v bn having press conference at will but refused to address the nation during Fulani herdsmen crisis

“The ship of the APC is fast sinking and is obviously beyond redemption. Nigerians are daily convinced that that the APC was a mistake made in 2015 and are also resolved that they are a mistake to be corrected in 2019.”

Like INEC like Buhari government-they all had four year to better Nigeria but all they manifest were stark incompetency, ineptitude and failure.

Buhari if all these is geared towards rigging the election then you have failed!!


Please enjoy your one week extra on the seat!!
