Jegede said the list of his agents are yet to be received from his authentic chairman less than 48 hours to the less not to talk of training them unlike his other co-contestants.
“There is need to collate the list of my agents, train them and submit their names for proper training and sending their names to INEC for proper recognition.
“Also, the voters registers has not be officially release to the authentic chairman and even if it has been released, do we have time to study it and make appropriate observations.
“What we have come to ask is for INEC to show some discretion in respect of fixing the date for election”.

In his response, Ondo REC, Olusegun Agbaje insisted that the commission is ready to go on with the election as not doing do so will be of financial implications to the federal government.
