This Is A Most Wicked And Barbaric Action – Nigerians Blast INEC For Postponing 2019 Election
INEC Chairman, Pro. Mahmood Yakubu
Nigerians called it a barbaric and wicked act against the Nigerian people who left their places of work (abroad and around the states in Nigeria) just to cast their votes.
According to INEC, the elections were rescheduled because of logistic issues as the body claimed it was facing difficulty distributing sensitive electoral materials to some states of the federation.
The chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, read a five-paragraph statement at 2:50 am on Saturday attributing the decision to logistic reasons but refused to entertain any question.

We are disappointed in #INEC #NigeraDecides2019
I’m sitting there in front of the TV, waiting for the promised INEC announcement on the elections. They’ve taken a decision, but it will be announced to us “later today”. REALLY?!! It’s 1.40 am! Elections should hold in about 6 hours! What on earth is going on?!!!
Mr. President was already in Daura in Katsina State and the VP already in Lagos to vote this morning before the postponement just announced by INEC. This is truly disappointing, but the march to the Next Level continues. Nigeria will prevail
Kai INEC! A lot of people traveled to cast their vote today, some for many hours and some from abroad, but you did such a thing just few hours to the polls. Terrible!
If the numbers announced by @inecnigeria for official interactions around the elections could lie about the elections holding today, are we still expected to have confidence in INEC? We don’t deserve this multibillion-naira mediocrity!
INEC, you always have four years to prepare for Corper’s being used for elections. All the money gotten for elections, why can’t you provide suitable accommodation for a night? Why do you treat graduates like this? Is it a crime to serve Nigeria?
Does INEC have any other remit? Like do they organize owambe weekly in addition to organizing elections periodically?
One Job!
INEC postpones election after four years of planning. Nigeria will always be Nigeria. It’s just pathetic.
This is a video clip of the INEC chairman formally announcing the postponement of the Saturday presidential election. You had 4 years to prepare for this. Plus, you assured the world that you were ready, and pple traveled from far and near for this election. This is unacceptable
So no owambe for 2 Saturdays in a row ?! these INEC guys don’t rate us at all! No respect!
Please INEC name has been changed alongside the “disappointing” postponement..
It’s now ANEC
Amaka National Electoral Commission
If you know you know..
INEC: Wait! We’re not ready! Sorry
Fuck INEC
Fuck Buhari
Fuck all the the people that support their incompetence
Fuck their dog if they have any
Y’all INEC is the Amaka of Nigerians, she just disappointed US!
And my wedding is supposed to hold Feb 23rd. And I just woke up to hear that INEC has put a knife in my plans on a day that supposed to be my happiest day. I’ve never been so devastated!
