Mr Musharraf said too much damage had been done to polling stations and voter papers during the violence in the wake of Ms Bhutto's assassination last Thursday.
"Election commission offices, their centres, polling stations and their equipment were all damaged and destroyed. Hence the election commission was facing a big difficulty to hold these elections," he said.
The main opposition parties say they will take part, despite having demanded the election be held as originally planned on 8 January.
They have accused officials of seeking to rig the elections.
The vote is seen as a crucial move towards democratic rule under President Musharraf, an important ally in the US-led "war on terror" who stood down as army chief in November.
