http://factaboutafrica.blogspot.com/ – Nigeria's electoral commission chairman says the oil-rich country's National Assembly election has been postponed until Monday over polling problems.

Attahiru Jega made the announcement Saturday as the nation should have been voting. But in many areas, ballot papers and results sheets never made it to polling places.

Several states stopped their polls because of such problems, leading to a breakout of violence in one city.

Jega says: "It is an emergency."
