The Senate itself was fraudulent and duplicitous when it pushed the responsibility of electronic transmission of result to the NCC.
Dragging the Commission to testify before the House on the feasibility of the electronic transmission of results was mischievous on the part of the lawmakers. It was a joke taken too far by a body that was supposed to understand the basics of the nation’s grundnorm, the Constitution. They feigned ignorance of relevant sections of the Constitution just to scapegoat the NCC and make themselves look squeaky clean.

For the avoidance of doubt, Section 78 of the Constitution provides that: “The Registration of voters and the conduct of elections shall be subject to the direction and supervision of the Independent National Electoral Commission.”
