\nElection observer group named \u2018Project 2011 Swift Count\u2019 has called on Nigerians not to be discouraged by the rescheduling of the National Assembly elections to Saturday April 9.<\/p>\n
The group whose membership comprises the Federation of Muslim Women\u2019s Associations in Nigeria (FOMWAN); Justice, Development and Peace\/Caritas Nigeria (JDPC), Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) and Transition Monitoring Group (TMG) urged Nigerians to go out to vote on Saturday for the National Assembly election and ensure that their votes count.<\/p>\n
Dr. Aisha Akanbi, a National Steering Committee (NSC) member, stated that, \u201cIt is a positive step that Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) consulted with relevant stakeholders to arrive at consensus on how best to ensure all Nigerians have a meaningful opportunity to exercise their right to vote\u201d<\/p>\n
The partner organisations however remained concerned about logistical<\/p>\n
arrangements and the security of sensitive election materials.<\/p>\n
They noted that logistics have plagued the current commission throughout the process, hoping that the new sequence of elections will allow INEC to finally overcome its logistical challenges.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe call on all Nigerians not to be discouraged and to go out to vote on\u00a0 Saturday for the National Assembly election and ensure that their votes count,\u201d said Rev. Father. Zacharia Samjumi, an NSC member.<\/p>\n
