I have an uncle who travelled from the US to Nigeria just for the elections.I told him they might not hold,he said it was impossible.I wonder how he is feeling now.But really,i think it might be for the best,in terms of the security issues in the country.The funny thing is,i am not sure this is the reason why the elections were really postponed.
