Which to me no be lie. Becos I no see reason why them go shift am if not to make sure say evrytin to use rig dey intact. The one wey dey para me na say the Justice system no dey work; like say the politicians don put them all for pocket.
I completely understand your frustration. This election is different from other elections conducted in past. Thanks to BVAS the evidence is glaring. INEC said they needed 5 days to reconfigure the machine for the gubernatorial election and there's no enough time so they had to postpone the election, so let's hope there's no hidden agenda. My major concern na their backend server wey dem say dem go transfer the presidential result put. Make dem no come tell us another stories.

Na another political moves be this oh in my own opinion, because why him no do am since, na just few days to election him dey run this employment dem and who knows maybe condition go dey for the labour union congress in the state to support am for him boy to enter office for him to do more immediately him enter seat.
Rivers state na PDP state but LP dey cause serious political upheaval as we take see am for Lagos state and other areas, so dem fit pull some surprises. Also, Wike endorsement of BAT and him role for the election result for the state no go down well with many people so e fit come back come bite am. Him plan of putting him boy for office make him cover him nyash fit no work out. Wike approving the list of civil servant no be today e start, it's the politicians way of canvassing for vote in Nigeria. Sanwo Olu just paid 1.2billion pension funds to retirees. https://twitter.com/tvcnewsng/status/1633123965861232640?t=mNZcNK8AgJPQeJBWZpnuww&s=19

Many persons would have died waiting for this money and this is the time he feels it's appropriate to release the funds or he never planned to but had to do this because of APC shocking defeat in Lagos.

Rivers and Lagos will be a surprise gubernatorial election that will make people to believed dat democracy has come to stay in Nigeria, if INEC will make use of BVAS on the 18th of march because, there is a great team work that is going on in south south to frustrate some governor's that works against the choice of people of south South during the presidential election. If wat am hearing now concerning the wealthy men in Lagos that supported labour party during the presidential election to defeated PDP and APC, are ready to team up again come 18th of march to battle with the current governor.

If you wan blame anybody na Peter Obi of Labour Party and Atiku Abubakar of PDP wey talk say make INEC no touch the BVAS but dem supposed reconfigure am for the Gubernatorial Elections. Based on the court judgement wey dem get from appeal na dem they cause this one now oh, make una no dey blame another person lol. Wait make I post am as the link talk.

The statement said the postponement was to make for adequate timing to reconfigure the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) ahead of the governorship and state assembly polls.

The Presidential Election Tribunal had restrained the commission from tampering with all sensitive materials –including the BVAS – used in the conduct of the presidential election following the request by the the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party (LP), Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, respectively, who rejected the outcome of the presidential election.

Based on the focus states; Wike dun dey play another politics and sadly people go still fall for am. See wetin I read for news today, Wike approves promotion of Rivers civil servants
Quote
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has resolved to implement outstanding promotion of the government’s workers in the state and fulfill his promise of employing 10,000 youths into the service.

The governor said that he had forwarded the list of members of the Civil Service Commission immediately to the State House of Assembly for screening to enable the commission to oversee the process.

This Rivers election no go easy, una think say Wike go fit put him boy for seat abi Labour, APC or even SDP wey Senator Magnus Abe dey represent go push PDP comot for office especially after wetin Wike do for presidential election.

From wetin me observe for this whole matter, na the court case of Peter Obi/Atiku and INEC concerning the inspection of ONEC sensitive materials and BIVAS reconfiguration be the main reason for the postponement. 
Now concerning Rivers and Lagos gubernatorial election, I dey see big fight for those two states. First be say, the status quo may change in Lagos but Rivers State is too hard to predict. Make we see as e go be sha.... but make every omah stay safe.

Make we tell ourselves the truth, without rigging and manipulation of votes, na wetin want make inec to postpone elections?
See eh na as I think am nai I go take talk am, I believe say e get political party wey dey try want collect power by all means and na that party dey work with inec for their their own favour, and sincerely I dey suspect wike and en political party, Rivers State PDP, because we dey hear romour say SIM FUBARA(rivers State PDP governorship candidate) get case for court for illegal manipulation of government funds, and if the case is not judge in his favour, en no go dey on ballot and PDP fit loose governorship,and Dem suppose dey court today wey be (10th March 2023) so to me I dey feel say na wike dey work with inec go postpone the election so that e go favour PDP for Rivers State...

I think we all know the reason behind this postponement but you think say e go get any effect on the outcome of the election on the 18th of March like people go lose interest or more people go dey interested in the election, within you think? Bare in mind many people postponed their business/events because of the previous election date.
For my area, people dey speculate say inec don get plans to rig the election again for some governor aspirants, this na why they postpone the election, so that they go get enough time to perfect their plans and strategies.

 I still dey surprise Sha say pipo still believe in this " your vote is your voice" tin wey wen the whole tin shele, you go dey see case of " what I ordered vs what I got" case.
The mata weak me when I hear am o, becos ontop of this election wahala nah the cash crunch and I believe say most pipo don dey wait make the election do come and go so evriwia fit normalize. Make we see weda beta tin fit come out of the usual we dey used to na.

Make I start by telling the truth, I never know why they postpone the governorship election wey suppose hold this coming Saturday, but whatever be their reason, me never still dey happy with the outcome of the presidential election, so I be don talk am, and I still dey talk am say if inec no do the right thing concerning result of the presidential election, I no go vote on governorship election, and I no go ever comot say I dey go vote again .

For my area, people dey speculate say inec don get plans to rig the election again for some governor aspirants, this na why they postpone the election, so that they go get enough time to perfect their plans and strategies.
Whatever be their reason, what matters now be say, Nigerians have lost hope in Inec, and wetin dey pain me pass now be say, it seems nothing is been done to make them realize their misconduct and possibly correct themselves.

The fair unexpected results where underdogs won and irregularities that greeted the presidential and National assembly elections have opened the eyes of many politicians. There are reports that they've imported tugs to cause mayhem, which is why the DSS and other security arms advised INEC about the postponement.

This is a mixed development as lives and property are better preserved than any personal or collective engagements on the day it has been shifted to, but this is sad, especially for those that have important programs on that day. It's however double for those that formerly shifted their engagements because of the initial date, they will have to shift it again.

And truly, all eyes should be on the Lagos and Rivers elections in the south. I hope the security architectures would be rightly put in place to forestall rigging and snatching of ballot boxes among others. Many hoodlums are reportedly in the two states now, and the agberos in Lagos are another foreseeable issue.

Only God can help us in this country. The election that has been somewhat fair in the recent past has taken the backseat again. Let's hope that the will of the people prevails this time.

After our discussion on the spams the board was generating due to the Presidential election, this suggestion was thrown out there but upto this moment I haven't seen an thread on this.
Thankfully the election has come and gone and for next big event in the country we'll just create a thread to discuss things ongoing. For example, for the upcoming Governorship election, someone can create a comprehensive threads that put into account of all the 36 states or key states (states wey their election go hot) for decision. Now all decision will be carried out there and whatever threads that pops up in regards to the governorship election will be reported to be locked.

Now understand say this thread like this no be for politics in general but only for the gubernatorial election wey dey come up very soon. If you get other political discussion carry am commot for this thread so we no go confused ourselves. This thread na self moderated and any discussion wey no concern the governor election I go delete am. Also any topics wey concerned this governorship election wey dey outside this thread, report am to moderator with reference to this thread and them go lock am, that's if the person no gree hear warning to lock the thread.

Now to the matter's at hand, see our first discussion; It’s Official: INEC postpones Saturday’s governorship, state assembly elections

The elections, scheduled to hold on Saturday, 11 March, two weeks after the presidential election, will now hold on 18th March.
