The Nation Newspaper Edo 2024: APC chairman calls for cancellation of scheduled INEC's CVR
in Edo state, Jarret Tenebe, has called for the cancellation of the Continuous Voter Registration , scheduled by the Independent National Electoral Commission to start on Monday, May 26, and to end on June 5, ahead of the September 21, governorship election.
He said: “The compelling reasons behind Edo APC’s call for the cancellation of the CVR in the state are compromised INEC officials, deployment of biased ad-hoc staff, manipulation of voter registration data, and the extensive damage to INEC’s Edo State headquarters by the flood, which damaged equipment and materials for the CVR.
Wariowei said: “Our doors are open. It is not good to antagonise the electoral commission when its officials have not done anything wrong. It is not fair to INEC and its officials. This is not the way to go. Olumekun admitted that some of the voter enrollment machines, already configured for the CVR, were affected by the massive flooding, but noted that the commission was delivering additional machines from neighbouring states to make up for the shortfall, while adding that INEC was determined to ensure that the CVR in all the 192 wards across Edo would proceed on May 27, as scheduled.
