The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said the Ondo State government will hold on November 26 as scheduled.
This was in reaction to calls by the Peoples Democratic Party and other parties for the postponement of the election.
Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi said the commission had already concluded all plans for the polls.
“INEC has no plan and does not intend to postpone the election,” he said.
“Besides, the grounds for postponing any election are enshrined in the Electoral Law and certainly, such calls for postponement is not one of the grounds.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has given the Court of Appeal the approval to resume hearing of all appeals relating to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidacy tussle in Ondo state.
