for you mind.

cmon:
I think JEGA is giving out too much information on this election and voting process, in such a way that one can now easily determine how to ultimately rig the elections successfully.

karkel:
And long serving president in history........dat what obj don't want

Sajio:
Jega shouldn't stop @telling us the advantages of this machine but also it's possible disadvantage.. we don't want a situation where the card reader will shutdown pending on its usage.... how durable it is, can it work effectively thru out the day?.. I remembered how my Tecno phone got spoiled via long talk on phone. twas very hot and before I know it went off and that was the end of that phone.. I would prefer they test run it b4 using it in the election.. we don't want to hear any story ooh

tbaba1234:


During the Obama/Romney elections, there were irregularities in some polling units. Some machines malfunctioned such that, you press Obama and Romney is recorded. This is a country with tested processes.

That is the problem with technology, there will be malfunction. At the end of the day, there is greater chance of a more credible elections with card readers than without.

There is no electronic voting in naija for Christ sake! It's only for accreditation and to authenticate voters that's all.

Why many people dull like this?

agabusta:


This is a very dumb assertion. Even if Jona wins 2nd term (God forbid), he cant serve as long as Obj's total period of ruling Nigeria. Obj spent 3 yrs ealier and then 8 years making 11 years.

If GEJ comes back (God forbid ) he will be spending 9 years and months.

OLADD:


The INEC Chairman confitmed some minutes ago that between 800,000 and 1,000,000 PVCs were yet to be brought to the country from overseas even as at today and this supported the alarm raised by FFK in his last public statement which many Nairalanders condemned. Can we see the level of mischief and error of judgement on display by many Nairalanders? Can those involved now say sorry to FFK? Was PDP not right to have punctured the claim by Prof Jega that INEC was ready for the election?

Useless PHCN why take the light! Was enjoying this a whole lot

Head swell mode?

dunkem21:
[s]This confirms that he wasn't ready before. These are the necessary steps he should have taken before the elections.

It is not even enough to test it with the senators alone. He should conduct a mock election in selected communities with fictitious names and test the card reader appropriately.

What happens if the card reader is vandalized

He should open a Q & A session with Nigerians to further educate us on the processes.

He should not continue in isolation.

dunkem21:


Nods in agreement.

If na you nko?

Ichiato:

Why can't you address someone with some reasonable degree of respect? Did he claim there's electronic voting in Nigeria?
He's only trying to point out the fact that electronic device can never be 100 percent efficient. Weather na for voting or na for accreditation no concern person. Nigerians shouldn't expect these devices to be 100% percent efficient simple.

But it's possible to disenfranchise eligible voters due to system malfunction.
Have they got back up plans?

Rhozabeth:

All these groups and people (put together) that u ve mentioned do not form 5 percent of the electorate or the ordinary Nugerian! So they are insignificant

iluvnaija:


With all due respect my brother I am not abusing him only adding to what he has said. I keep hearing senators asking unreasonable questions when they know fully well the pure purpose of PVC.

I am sorry .

sultan003:


Naaa, the card reader can be hacked too... Apparently the PVC has a chip inside, and with politicians buying it, are they not planning to hack into the technology of the PVC and the card reader.

whether this card reader works or not should have been proven since last year. There are loopholes everywhere.

Imanuelle:


There are back up plans which vary from the use of register, issuance of forms, getting annother card reader, or rescheduling of the exercise in the affected units.
