2023: APC Pushing For Postponement Of Election By Four Weeks

The All Progressives Congress (APC) is reportedly seeking the postponement of the general election amidst the economic chaos in the country.

This comes barely 24 hours after APC suspended its campaign activities in Ogun and Lagos State respectively.

According to Daily Independent, there is a plot by the ruling party to have the election timetable adjusted by four weeks and it is being spear­headed by the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.

The APC source who spoke to the aforementioned publication said the plan to extend the election is due to the current economic chaos and protest being experienced by many Nigerians over the new Naira scarcity and fuel.

The source said: “The APC is seeking a post­ponement of the election by four weeks and the move is led by Governor Nasir El-Rufai. I think it has to do with the current chaos being experi­enced as a result of the naira and fuel scarcity”.
