Mahmood Yakubu, chairman of the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), says there were attempts to
sabotage the commission during preparations for the elections.
He said this in Abuja while
explaining the reason for the postponement of the general election.
The presidential and national
assembly elections had been shifted by seven days, while the governorship and
state assembly polls were slo shifted by a week.
Yakubu said the postponement was
not as a result of incompetence, security lapse or political interference.
He listed the fire incidents in
Abia, Plateau and Anambra states, saying the commission did its best to make
sure that the challenges were tackled.
