The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has postponed, by one week, the presidential flag-off of the Ekiti State governorship campaign slated for Thursday.

President Goodluck Jonathan was to lead PDP chieftains to Ekiti to present the party's flag to the state governorship candidate, Mr Ayodele Fayose, at the Oluyemi Kayode Stadium.

A statement issued by the party's National Publicity Secretary, Mr Olisa Metuh, on Wednesday in Abuja said that the postponement is in honour of the victims of Tuesday’s explosions in Jos.

No fewer than 75 persons lost their lives to twin blasts which occurred in the central area of Jos on Tuesday.

"Our hearts reach out to the victims and their families, and we pray that Nigerians unite as we say no to terrorism", the PDP said.

Ekiti governorship election is scheduled for June 21.
