The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has again restated its position on the transmission of election results, saying what most partisans refer to as e-transmission has no place in its books, as what it does is only to upload, not transmit, polling unit-level results on its results viewing portal IReV using its Bimodal Voter Authentication System BVAS.
INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, made these remarks on Monday in Akwanga, Nasarawa State during a 2-day capacity-building workshop for members of the INEC Press Corps as part of its preparations for the elections. He said; “As first-hand witnesses to the Commission’s activities, the INEC Press Corps members also become the repository of electoral information in Nigeria. This places them at an advantageous position to play important roles in shaping the opinions and editorial policies of their media organizations on issues relating to the programmes and policies of the Commission.
“For the three governorship elections scheduled for 11th November, the Commission will deploy the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System BVAS to authenticate the Permanent Voter’s Card PVC and upload polling unit results to the INEC Result Viewing Portal IReV seamlessly on election day”, he stated.Pensioners collapse waiting for audit team in Osun
