There is confusion over alleged postponement of Saturday ‘s Governorship and Assembly elections by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Some unnamed officials of the Commission were quoted to have said the elections slated for Saturday have been postponed for a week.

It was learnt the decision to postpone the elections was based on the inability to reconfigure the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System on time for Saturday due to an initial order by the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.

INEC’s National Commissioner Information and Voter Education, Festus Okoye and Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekunmi neither picked calls nor responded to WhatsApp messages.
