The presidential candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) Malam Nuhu Ribadu said yesterday that the postponement of the National Assembly polls was a tragedy that resulted from act of \u201csabotage\u201d.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Daily Trust in Yola yesterday, Ribadu said the incident had damaged the Independent National Electoral Commission\u2019s (INEC\u2019s) credibility and dampened people\u2019s expectations.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel very disappointed at the fact that INEC has not been able to hold the National Assembly elections as scheduled. I fully understand and sympathise with the frustration felt by the Nigerian people as a result,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a strategy to frustrate a credible election; we will not succumb to it. (INEC Chairman Prof Attahiru) Jega, however, should work and control (the situation) to avoid more loss of time and resources.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also call for calm and restraint on the part of all stakeholders so that the elections can still take place in an atmosphere of peace and order,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Before Jega\u2019s announcement, INEC officials had already announced the postponement of the elections in Adamawa State after voters waited several hours for the arrival of electoral materials without success.<\/p>\n
