The consultative meeting with stakeholders was scheduled by INEC to find out ways of conducting the election in the face of security challenges in the State. It will be recalled that Adamawa State has been under the grip of members of the Boko Haram Islamic sect. The Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Mr. Kayode Idowu said this in an interview with newsmen during an enquiry to ascertain the commission’s reaction to the Court.
He said, “The stakeholders meeting has been cancelled because of the Court ruling; the chairman who ordered the cancellation said he has been briefed based on the court order and in compliance with the rule of law.” A source said that all the Heads of the security agencies including the inspector-General of Police and Department of State Security were already present. Idowu also said a formal press statement would be issued later from INEC Headquatres.
