GOODLUCK JONATHAN
The council of state meeting holding today in Abuja may likely approve the postponement of the 2015 election considering various challenges facing itS possibility.
Following the reactions of the two major contending parties(Peoples Democratic Party,PDP and All Progressive Congress,APC) ,there are clear disapproval from their respective camps against the postponement of the elections.


However, based on a report by THIS DAY, National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki, will be wooing the council of state and encouraging them to postpone the election because the country is not ready.
If the Council of State endorses a postponement of the polls, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC would have no choice than to accede.
