Shehu Sani, the Senator representing Kaduna Central has highlighted five things raised in minds of Nigerians following the postponement of presidential and national assembly elections by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, had on Saturday morning announced the shift of the polls by a week.

Mahmood attributed the postponement of all the scheduled elections to logistic and operational problems. 

The decision met by INEC to postpone the polls has since been met with reactions across the country.

Sani, on his part said postponement of election by INEC raised “doubt, dust, suspicion, temper and cost” in Nigeria.

The Kaduna lawmaker further urged Nigerians not to be discouraged but be in high spirit to vote

“However, it should not lower our spirit or our resolve to exercise our democratic responsibility.

“Unfolding events demands that we should be marathoners not sprinters.”
