Entertainer and activist, Charly Boy, on Tuesday said that he will lead a peaceful protest if the presidential and national assembly elections are shifted once again.
The 67-year-old disclosed his plan to lead a protest to the headquarters of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) while speaking to reporters in Abuja.
“I want to believe that what happened on Saturday is some kind of divine intervention, no matter how much things have become so politicised in our environment.
“However, if there is another postponement, we will go to INEC office to tell us what is happening and whether they are truly independent or not.
“Unless they want to set fire on an already tensed situation in the country, I see no reason why INEC should postpone the elections again.
“Nigerian politicians are very desperate to get and hold onto power and it is part of my nationalistic engagement to speak against mindless political criminality in the polity,” he said.
The convener of the ‘Our Mumu Don Do’ Movement (OMDD) urged Nigerians, especially the youth, to come out and vote for leaders of their choice in all elections.
Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, the INEC chairman, early on Saturday, February 16, announced the postponement of the presidential and national assembly polls to February 23 because of “logistics and operational problems.”
The Commission shifted the governorship and legislative elections as well as council polls in the Federal Capital Territory from March 2 to March 9.
