The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has debunked claims that the commission is planning to shift the elections scheduled for February 25th, 2023 to March 4th.
The INEC, in its reaction to a press release purportedly signed by the commission, described the reports as fake.
According to a tweet posted by the commission on its official Twitter Handle, the commission urged Nigerians to disregard the information.
The INEC said that it was not contemplating the decision.
“Our attention has been drawn to a fake report circulating on social media with the title: “INEC May Postpone Feb 25 Election by a week or two”
“The Commission will not and is not contemplating postponing the 2023 General Election. Nigerians should disregard it, ” the tweet read.
