Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, has advised the Independent National Electoral Commission to learn from its mistake by ensuring that there is no hitch during the postponed National Assembly election.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mimiko said, \u201cThis democratic journey has started and we should not be deterred by occasional challenges or seeming obstacles to its conclusion.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Mimiko commended the security operatives in the state, for the roles they played on Saturday but called for greater vigilance on the part of the people in protecting their votes from election riggers.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said, \u201cDo not hesitate to report strange faces in your communities and neighbourhood to the nearest security operatives as vigilance is the price for eternal liberty.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI salute your courage and I make bold to say that though we may have made a few false starts, with the resolve of people like you, we are bound to move from the desert of electoral dilemma to an oasis of truly representative governance.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, Governor Chibuike Amaechi of Rivers State has urged Nigerians not to lose hope over the postponed National Assembly election.<\/span><\/p>\n

He told the News Agency of Nigeria in Port Harcourt on Sunday that the postponed election was inadvertent and that all hope was not lost.<\/span><\/p>\n
