Election Observation Missions of the European Union EU, African Union AU, United Nations UN and others have called on the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC to finalise all preparations and ensure that the new election dates are adhered to.
They said this in a joint statement signed by eight organisations, in light of the postponement of the general elections.
Other signatories to the statement are the election observation missions of the Economic Community of West African States ECOWAS, Commonwealth Observer Group and the Electoral Institute for Sustainable Democracy in Africa.
Some others are the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and the National Democratic Institute/International Republican Institute.
They also said that INEC should provide regular updates and information to the public on its preparations in the coming days and weeks to enhance confidence and trust in the process.
