The Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) Sunday said electronic transmission of results of elections conducted by it has come to stay.
The electoral umpire stated this as it makes clarification on report in the media claiming that INEC has jettisoned electronic transmission of results and reverted to manual collation of results.
In a statement, the
National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee,
Festus Okoye declared, “This is not correct”.
He described the media report as misunderstanding.
He noted that the misunderstanding arose from a recent short interview granted to a national newspaper on the procedure for result management during elections.
But some have interpreted the explanation on result management procedure to mean that the Commission has jettisoned the electronic transmission of result and reverted to the manual process.
He stated,
“For clarity, the procedure for result transmission remains the same as in recent Governorship elections in Ekiti and Osun States. There will be no change in all future elections, including the 2023 General Election”.
Continuing,
“We wish to reassure Nigerians that the electronic transmission of result has come to stay. It adds to the credibility and transparency of the process when citizens follow polling unit level results on the INEC Result Viewing (IReV) portal on real-time on Election Day. There will be no change or deviation in subsequent elections”.
Okoye stressed,
“The entire gamut of result management is provided for in Sections 60, 62 and 64 of the Electoral Act 2022. In line with the provision of the law, the Commission, in April this year, released a detailed clarification of the procedure for transmission, collation and declaration of result which was shared with all stakeholders and uploaded to our website.
We appeal to all Nigerians to avail themselves of the provisions of the Electoral Act and the Commission’s detailed explanation of the procedure and not reach a conclusion on the basis of media headlines”.
