The Cross River State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Dr Johnson Alalibo, on Friday, said the state had received the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System for use in the 2023 general elections.
He explained that “once authentication of facials and fingerprints fail, the voter will not be allowed to vote”.
“This means that security of votes is assured with the double capturing of facials and fingerprints,” he was quoted as saying. He expressed confidence that this modern technology recently introduced by INEC would ensure that votes count, adding that “other advantages of BVAS is that the polling units results will be snapped using BVAS at the end of the process and uploaded to INEC Result Viewing portal by the presiding officers before proceeding to the collation centres.”
On the ongoing renovations of INEC facilities in the state destroyed during the #EndSARS protests, Dr Alalibo said, “The Commission has no doubt that all the ongoing renovations of INEC offices destroyed and dilapidated structures in the state will be completed before the 2023 general elections.”All rights reserved.
