 Following the adjust­ment of the dates for the 2015 general election by the Independent National Elec­toral Commission (INEC) from February 14 and 28 to March 28 and April 11 on Saturday, President Goodluck Jonathan has re­stated his commitment to the sanctity of May 29, 2015 as the terminal date of his first term.

According to him, May 29 is, has been, and will re­main sacrosanct.

On his part, the presi­dential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muham­madu Buhari (rtd), urged Nigerians to remain calm and do nothing to worsen the current security situ­ation. Buhari however, al­leged that though INEC acted within its constitu­tional powers, the shift was engineered by the PDP and the INEC “has been gravely compromised.”

The new dates must be sacrosanct, he warned.
