The All Progressives Congress senators in the National Assembly on Sunday condemned the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission to postpone the February 14 and 28 elections.

A statement by the groups spokesperson, Senator Babafemi Ojudu, who represents Ekiti Central in the upper chamber, described the postponement as a teleguided plot by the Peoples Democratic Party to derail democracy.

Ojudu said, What we are seeing is a desperate and jittery response to the imminent defeat of the PDP. The postponement has shown the helplessness of INEC in the face of a malicious cabal bent on destroying the fabric of democracy.

The group said the decision had raised a big credibility question on INEC and the forthcoming elections.

He said, This decision is borne out of fear of defeat and malice against the people of Nigeria in the face of the overwhelming support the APC command across the country.

He added that the PDP leadership in collaboration with INEC had put Nigeria in extremely bad light among the comity of nations.

The senator added that the postponement is a diversionary tactics which undermines the aspirations of Nigerians and dims the hope for change in a country that in the past has seen bitter upheavals due to similar partisan posture of the election umpire.

He alleged that the INEC had placed itself above the interest of the people, adding that the action of the electoral body, ran contrary to the decision of the Council of State.

He said, The action of the PDP will have serious negative impact on the economy. It will spur public distrust, dampen peoples morale and deplete the resources of stakeholders in the electoral process.

The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has urged its supporters to brace for the challenge to reclaim its stolen mandate from Governor Ayodele Fayose.

In a statement on Sunday, the state Publicity Secretary,Taiwo Olatubosun, said the party and the people in general now stand on a superior moral ground to retrieve the stolen mandate and to install a purposeful government led by (ex-Governor Kayode) Fayemi for Ekiti development.

The party stated this in a reaction to the audio tape released by SaharaReporters, an online medium, detailing how Fayose, former Minister of State for Defence, Mr Musiliu Obanikoro; Senator Iyiola Omisore, Minister of Police Affairs, Mr Jelili Adesiyan, and the military allegedly rigged theJune 21 governorship poll in the state.

But the Minister of State for Works, Mr. Dayo Adeyeye, has described the audio clipas a failed attempt to rewrite history.

According to him, no amount of campaign of calumny and blackmail could erase thefact that Ekiti people willingly elected Fayose.

Olatubosun said the APC had been vindicated by its claim that photochromic ballot papers were used to fix the June 21, 2014 election in the state.

He wondered how Fayose, who was facing a criminal trial over alleged stealing of N1.3bn in poultry project, instituted by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, won all the 16 local governments in that election against a performing incumbent governor.

He added, It was shocking that one of the participants spoke of how he must deliver on the assignment given to him by the President. The fellow said I am not for a tea party but to deliver on the presidents assignment.

It was shocking hearing the voice of a Major General in the Army, begging Mr Governor and pledging loyalty to deliver on the assignment.

WHAT LIBERALS ARE SAYING ABOUT MONDAY'S LEADERSHIP SPILL MEETING:

"The only question for our party is do we want reduce ourselves to the level of the Labor Party in dragging down a first-term prime minister?"

- Tony Abbott tells reporters in Sydney on Sunday.

"It's inconceivable it would be in the best interests of either the Liberal Party or the country for the prime minister to go into the parliament tomorrow with this issue unresolved."

- Cabinet minister Mathias Cormann.

"I'm in the cabinet, of course I support the prime minister, everyone supports the prime minister. You don't have to keep on saying that all the time."

- Malcolm Turnbull tells reporters outside his Sydney home on Sunday morning.

"If you are going to be disloyal to someone, you should front them. If I disagreed with the prime minister and if I believed he wasn't the best person to lead the team I would step down from the cabinet - that is the appropriate thing to do"

- Treasurer Joe Hockey when asked whether Tony Abbott could expect all cabinet ministers to oppose the spill motion.

"If, for whatever reason, the leadership of a political party is vacant then any member of the party can stand, whether they be a minister or a backbencher, without any disloyalty to the person whose leadership has been declared vacant."
