A company led by the National Leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Ahmed Bola Tinubu,
may have deployed the perfect election-rigging
mechanism in the 2015 election, a confidential
review obtained by SaharaReporters shows.

And it may all have been accomplished with the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)
not knowing its own technology was being
used against it.

It began in 2012 when a company, Act
Technologies Limited, was put into play after it
had been taken from its original owners by
Tinubu and Retired Col. Sani Bello, two of Africa’s
wealthiest men. ACT went into partnership with
INEC to provide voter registration and accreditation, as well as election-management
technology, to Nigeria’s electoral body.

“This company eventually flushed out the
original recipient of the voter management
system contract from INEC and provided a
compromised technology which had a gaping
back door framework for manipulating voter
registration, PVC card issue and the voting process,” the report said.

The contract to provide INEC with the election
technology was originally to have been awarded
to Zinox Technologies Ltd, but INEC frustrated
Zinoxand ensured it was awarded to ACT, which
was then used to perpetrate APC’s scheme
known as “Preferred Voter Arrangement.”

“Despite winning the INEC contract, the company
had no records of having filed an annual report
as of May 2015,” the report said. “Disgruntled
individuals within the company have revealed
that approximately 80% of the company’s
earnings from IMEC were siphoned off, with the company being left with 20% to execute the
project.”

According to the report, “There is a very high
probability that the Card reader technology and
accompanying biometric PVC card technology
was severely compromised.”

“With access to the port and to the exact replica
of both the card readers and the Biometric
security template, parties loyal to the APC injected
data seamlessly and near flawlessly into the
database without anyone being alerted. With
inflated accreditation numbers in designated polling units/regions, they knew exactly which
polling units to rig and go unnoticed.”

It concluded that in 2015, the electronic
accreditation process was clearly tampered
with.

How Jonathan not allowing his opposition get mouth watering contracts under his govt is the most foolish thing I have seen

Xander85:


I suppose there was little he could do as it was Jegas' INEC that would have given out the contract!

ivandragon:
in the run up to the 2015 general elections, an office in Lagos where the manipulation was taking place was busted by the DSS, but the APC effectively turned the matter on its head so much that the federal government was handicapped in pursuing the matter further...
