It has been reported yesterday that there was a bomb blast targeted at INEC officials in Suleja, Niger state just a day before the rescheduled National Assembly elections. Suleja is a city close to Abuja and it seems terrorists or would be terrorists were involved.
I heard that this attack killed about 4 NYSC members and altogether, it is said that about 8 INEC staff were killed. It seems to be linked to political events happening in the country.
The unfortunate incident occurred when INEC was deploying personnel and materials in preparation for tomorrow's National Assembly elections.
The INEC chairman, Prof. Jega has already issued a statement saying;
"Our deep sympathies go to the families of all these young Nigerians who lost their lives or were injured. They have made enormous sacrifices in the service of their fatherland, and May God Almighty reward them appropriately".
