My Finger Was Recognised At 11 Th Try – Gov. Aliyu by MrPatoh: 5:03am On Mar 29, 2015 |
Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger has called for more public education on card reader and voter card before using them for elections . Aliyu made the call after casting his vote at the Musa Umar Ward Polling Unit in Minna on Saturday . He said the use of the two innovations had thrown up the challenges encountered during Saturday ’ s election . “ You can imagine a situation where the card reader fails to identify me and I even have to use my 10 fingers on the reader without success. It was at the eleventh try that my finger was recognised . “ This is a delay that can be avoided . This card has my name , my picture and this is my polling unit. I have been recognised by even the INEC official but the process has to be followed . “ I think more needs to be done on this challenge before we go into another poll . This can be rectified at the April 11 elections ’’, he said . NAN reports that voting started in some wards at 2p . m . due to late accreditation. Low turnout of registered voters was noticed in some places at the end of accreditation . At Kofae Isa Gomina Polling Unit 05 , Barki Sale , only 85 out of 1 , 716 people were accredited while 564 out of 1, 278 were accredited at Dogon Kowa . At Kofar Gidan Sarki Unit in new Bwari in Tafa Local Government Area , 359 out of 912 registered voters were accredited to vote, while at Bakin Kasuwa Primary School 2 in Bagama A of Suleja , 405 out the 683 were accredited to vote. At Shiroro , voters resorted to jumping queue due to tiredness from long waiting. Mr Akoniyin Oluwasegun , INEC ’ s Presiding Officer in Shiroro , said “ I need more support , even the police officers are tired. ”
