Voter Registration has not begun.
What is happening OBJ, Maurice Iwu and INEC?
Wetin dey happen o?

I hear it has begun very slowly in some areas but I have not seen a registration centre in all the areas I drove to or around.  I am a very mobile person reaching very far places in Lagos daily yet I am yet to come across a place where voter registration is on.

this is the greatest government magic in recent times, everywhere in Nigeria the e-voting machines are in short supply and only few goverment officials have been registered.

The Voters Re-validation exercise this time around is rather not very impressive. I want to say that like in Akwa Ibom State up till now so many local government area have not yet started the exercise and I wonder how the exercise will be successful at the closing date.

I want to Inform the INEC to focus much attention on the south south region of the country.

I also like to educate us to support the voters education program towards credible elections.

Ever since IBB bought PDP form, it became obvious that we may never have democracy again unless something is done about it. The billions INEC received is not really showing face. INEC must begin to show signs of concern to bring democracy to a lasting culture.

When INEC discovered logistic problems, it should have brought back the manual registration and thereafter scan all the thumbprints.

Another issue INEC should ensure is to allow people to register once & vote once anywhere in Nigeria so long as he has an original voters card. Some people had this problem last time when the registered near their offices but could not vote despite having original copies of voter registration. The reason INEC people gave then was that their names was not in their voters register.

This poor voter registration exercise is another proof of the PDP led government's irresponsibility, denial of its basic responsibility, abuse of the electorate and a delibrate effort to deprive the people their God permitted rights (democracy is permitted by God) to elect leaders of their choice from time to time.

2007 elections, is just a script been acted by the various actress and actors of the game. Shocked Shocked

automated voters registration, this could have been brought into the country based on request by whicheva agency that needs them, but INEC only requested for the numbers they would need to act their script. Grin Grin Grin

automated machine was  used by late Awoniyi and co, and it served the purpose it was meant for, though there were corrupt practices. Wink Wink Wink

so u c, INEC rquested for machines not according to needs, but according to wants by the PDP script. Angry Angry Angry

think about it, Europeans are never failures when it comes to technology, unless u don't have the money, there are a thousand and one company in the world that can supply much more than we need to execute the registration plans successfully. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

All those tricks are preparations for Election Malpractice.

My  brothers and sisters, i think i have a solution to these our problems. i suggest we call Pope Benedict to come to Nigeria and pray for the entire country. by doing this i believe Nigeria will be better again.

(An email sent to contact@inecnigeria.org)

Any concerned person at INEC should have a look at these responses in the weblink below.

http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-30847.0.html#msg712110

And then truly tell us WHERE WE ARE HEADING TO?

Is INEC for real?

Is the present INEC chairman dedicated to ensuring smooth elections in 2007?

Are the persons currently in govt ready to allow other individiuals to come and make their own inputs at Governance?

Is Nigeria meant to be rules by a select few?

The questions are Limitless . . .?

As the nationwide voter registration exercise continues across the country, [color=#990000]INEC has put in place a rapid response team for possible logistic problems. Accessing reports received so far from the field, the INEC director for Information Communication Technology, (ICT) Emmanuel Akem, said so far, the field reports were heart warming and that possible logistics problems were being contained within the logistics backup put in place by the Commission.
Akem further disclosed that the Direct Capture Technology is very dependable and that the exercise would be very successful.
He assured that every eligible voter who presents himself for registration would be registered as the exercise was continuous and would only stop as stipulated by law.[/color]

Lets be hopeful, lets stop being cynics. Lets just say its one of our regular problems of handling projects. I believe the registration will eventually go round. Lets all be patient, whats the point in rushing to have another voter's register imposed on us. We need to get it right otherwise, going back to the regular registration options will take us 5 decades backwards.

I think Nigerians needs a voice and the only way to guarantee that is a credible registration and voting.

am impressed with the quest to register, people should so that we can see if we can actually win back our country. However we need to be patient with the e-registration because if it works it will help a lot. So that people will no longer make bogus claims of votes that don't exist.

INDEPENDENT National Electoral Commission (INEC) disclosed yesterday that additional 10,000 Direct Data Capture (DDC) equipment would be deployed to the states of the federation and Abuja before the end of the week.


The chairman of the commission, Professor Maurice Iwu, who disclosed this at a meeting with state resisdent electoral commissioners in Abuja, said the commission would not lose focus on its determination to conduct free and credible elections in 2007.


Professor Iwu said the commission was convinced that its decision to commence the registration at the appointed time was better than the option of postponement of the exercise.


[color]“Had we shifted the date for the commencement of the registration because of the non-availability of the equipment, the raging accusation would have been that the commission never planned the conduct elections,” he said.[color=red]


While lamenting that it was painful that the exercise did not sail smoothly as desired, Professor Iwu pointed out that the initial difficulties in the exercise had sharpened the commission’s capacity for attending to logistics problems that occur in programmes of the magnitude of conducting general elections.


[color]He said if only many Nigerians who complained that the registration exercise was slow knew that the commission started the exercise with about 1,000 DDC machines as against the planned 33,000, they would have had some sympathy for the officials.[color=#990000]


He assured that with more equipment now available, the registration exercise would leave no potential voter unregistered.

The voters registration is going on,but the centers seems to be invisible,hence the complain by many Nigerians.I forsee massive rigging through the internet.2007 Election(Political Selection) will be very dangerous.Obj's administration is trying in terms of technology but i hope this online voting won't result to some else.
