#Edo Decides: INEC Speaks On Transmission of Results Electronically

The Independent National Electoral Commission through its resident electoral commissioner (REC) in Edo, Anugbum Onuoha has revealed that ongoing governorship election results will be transmitted electronically, saying only a poor network can stop the electronic transmission of results.

Onuoha made this known in an interview with Arise Television on Saturday, where he also disclosed that INEC has implemented contingency plans of 660 BVAS as a backup.

“You know that we have 4,519 pulling units across the 18 local governments, and so far we have deployed 4,622 BVAS to the various local governments. And we also have a backup of 660 BVAS,” he said.

“We have trained the operators for the BVAS. They are set. BVAS is to accredit the voters, to know the total number of voters that will vote at that level, that pulling unit.

“After that, then the voters will now start voting. At the end of the day, they will count the results, and it will be uploaded to our IReV.

“That is the state we are now. To be rest assured that we’ll conduct an election that we can call our own.


“I just want you to confirm. So are you saying that this election is going to be, the results will all be transmitted electronically? Is that what you’re saying? Yes. Thank you.

“Yes, unless there is no network in that place. If not, it will. We will transmit it.”
