Buhari laments poll shift, appeals for calm

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Muhammadu Buhari has called on all Nigerians to remain calm following Saturday’s postponement of the general elections from February to March and April.

Mr. Buhari just addressed a world Press conference at his campaign office in Abuja, saying he shared the pain and frustration of Nigerians over the shift.

He said although he considers the shift of the election a fraudulent attempt to subvert Nigeria’s democratic process, Nigerians should not be tempted into taking action that will further endanger the country.

He however maintained that the new dates fixed by INEC must be sacrosanct.

” Before us there is Nigeria, and long after we are gone there will be Nigeria,” Mr. Buhari said.
