Nigeria's National Electoral Commission (INEC) has fixed the nation's presidential election for January 22, 2010.
The National Assembly polls will take place on January 15, while the governorship and House of Assembly elections will hold on January 29.
Any run-off for governorship and presidential election will be held seven days after the announcement of the result of the poll election.
But the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has predicted post-election crisis because of the provisions of the amended Electoral Act which now make the Court of Appeal the court of first instance (original jurisdiction) in election petitions.
