INEC: How not to induct Nigeria into technology hall of shame - ITREALMS

Telecoms Clinic@ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!

Despite avalanche of promises  and hopes now dashed on inability of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to offer Nigerians the much pledged free, fair, credible and transparent exercise. REMMY NWEKE in this piece describes as shameful the scene 1 of how not to adapt technology for democracy.

“Let me draw your attention to the fact that the use of electronic devices such as Bimodal Voters Accreditation System (BVAS), INEC Voter Enrolment Device (IVED), INEC Results Viewing Portal (IRev) and other technological devices, are now legally allowed in the accreditation process for voters, collation of results and in the general conduct of elections” - INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu.
INEC: How not to induct Nigeria into technology hall of fame - ITREALMS
Preface:
About November 2021 while reviewing the Anambra State Governorship election with a section of the media, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, had declared the resolve to deepen the use of technologies in electoral processes in the country. For many political observers, this was a welcome development as he also commended Ndi Anambra for peaceful conduct during the governorship election in the state. He stressed why they introduced some new innovations especially via technology deployment to intensify the use of technology and reduce human intervention in the critical stages of the electoral process. He went on to list a few of these pioneering efforts to include the submission and processing of nominations forms and other applications online to drastically discourage human intervention in the electoral process.
