“Leadership of APC now in crucial meeting.They are considering postponement of Saturday's elections till 2nd week of March, using burning of INEC offices in Anambra, Abia & Plateau States as well as insecurity in some States as reasons,” he said.

Despite the fire incidents at three of its offices in Plateau, Abia and Anambra states, INEC has expressed readiness to hold the elections.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has also accused the APC of sponsoring the incidents.
