Much ado about Voter's Register:

Many people registered two times...so many registered in Onitsha and registered in their villages, a lot registered in Enugu, Awka and other urban centers and yet registered in their villages....INEC only called upon the biometric identifiers to sanitize the voter's registers of double registrants across the country... if your fingerprint is detected by the computer in more than one place...all entries bearing your fingerprints are removed...and you need to re-register. There is nothing that makes you a PDP or APGA supporter in the register with which someone can identify you and deregister you. Your fingerprint is very unique to the computer....no two people have the-same fingerprints. It does not make sense to remove people's name from the register across the state without concentrating on a particular L.G in other to rig an election; You will end up De-registering your own supporters too because nothing on the register identifies their party affiliations. The theory of using it to rig an election can only stand only when the De-registration is concentrated in a particular region...but in this case, the complain resonated evenly across the state. INEC has come out to tell us that they de-registered over 600,000 voters in Anambra state alone due to multiple registration and incomplete required data. INEC went ahead to tell us that they informed the stakeholders (political Parties) of this development in August this year and they never cared to check out the register.
