Few days to the 2015 elections, the former
governor of Kaduna State, Mr Balarabe Musa has
called on the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) to postpone the general
elections on grounds of insecurity and inability of a
large number of Nigerians to collect their Permanent
Voter Cards (PVCs).
He made the call while speaking at a forum organised by the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) in Kaduna. Musa also pointed out that the manner with which the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the main opposition party, the All Progressive Congress (APC), are going about their campaigns, gives bad signals that the elections will not be peaceful, free and fair, if they hold in February.
He warned of a repetition of the 2011 post election violence in some parts of the country where scores of people were killed, adding that if INEC goes ahead to conduct the 2015 polls on the 14th and 28 of February a repeat will be on the cards.
