We already told them so but they were insulting us because they lost

If INEC wishes they can even make elections manual their duty is just

to hold credible elections
How do you hold credible election when the facilities provided to conduct credible election is not been put to use? Why was money wasted purchase those devices if the manual process were so credible? See some of you are becoming more stupid by day because illegality seems to favour you. Stupidity and illegality must never be allowed to stand as that will create endless cycle of illegality . Sane society is not built on illegality. Criminals like you will always will condemn an Internet fraudster but support political criminals because it serves your immediate purpose.

. The results uploaded are even for the record of INEC not for legal issues. Forms EC8 are preferable. IREV results snapped or downloaded are insignificant.The SC held.
You are not making sense...

There is no way the Supreme Court will undermine an authenticated result...

If your argument is that the uploaded results were not real, then it could be understood...

But saying that INEC could allocate results suo motu does not hold water.

The opposition only need to prove that INEC results as used for declaring the winner were FALSE...

The Supreme Court cannot dismissive overwhelming evidence and then accept a manipulated result from INEC just because they are the electoral umpires...

There are a large body of instances where the Supreme Court threw INEC results out of the window...

From the write up, can you point out where the court said results does not have to be transmitted electronically.

What I read from this piece and that was the bane of the case between PDP and APC in Osun is BVAS and the duly registered voters. The court decision if true is that INEC is not mandated to transmit in real time the number of people registered to vote on BVAS. This is duly stored on BVAS anyways. This is different from the presidential case which is failure to transmit in real time the result of each polling boot (not registered voters in Osuns case) for the presidential election.

Notably, the apex court emphasised that there is no law that requires presiding officers to transmit by BVAS the number of accredited voters or accreditation of the polls to the database or backend server of INEC as claimed by the appellants.

“Therefore, the case of the appellants that the presiding officers were bound to instantly or on-the-spot transmit the number of accredited voters in the BVAS to the backend server or database of INEC has no support,” Emmanuel Agim who read the lead judgment said.



Keep twisting realities and spreading propaganda and deceit.
The supreme court never talked about transmitting of results but rather transmitting of accredited voters. They are 2 different issues.
INEC are bound by the law (electoral act) to transmit results from PU in real time

Are you aware of what is called emerging new facts

INEC is bound by the Electoral law and it's election guidelines to transmit results electronically. The INEC chairman made that point clear severally at different foras that the results of the 2023 general election, i.e polling units results will be transmitted electronically to the IREV real time on the election day
Thank you for this. Keep dishing them out please. These fools are trying to lie plate everything in preparation for evil agendas.

The court also noted that the information at the backend saver might not be accurate because the BVAS may fail to transmit records for several reasons including poor internet connection, loss of battery power, failure of INEC official to properly press the submit button etc. SJC Emmanuel Agim.

With the above, the non transmission of results immediately from the polling units to IREV is dead and buried. Case already resolved in favour of Tinubu even before the commencement of trial 🤣🤣🤣

OGA MAKE I QUOTE YOU NO VEX OOOOO! SORRY ON MORE CAREFUL EXAMINATION OF THE FACTS THE JUDGEMENT SPEAKS OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF ACCREDITED VOTERS NOT RESULTS. EVEN THEN I STILL THINK THE APC CASE WAS POORLY PRESENTED STRATEGICALLY TO ARRIVE AT THIS CONCLUSION. OUR EYES ARE STILL OPEN AND WE ARE READY.

Further evidence for Tinubu's anticipated victory at the tribunal. Had they denied the dancing governor his victory, they would have simultaneously announced the defeat of the president-elect.
We knew this all along that Tinubu would have helped Oyetola up there but that would have spelt the doom of his presidential pursuit.

EXPLAINER: Is INEC in breach of law on e-transmission of results?


Many Nigerians have expressed worry over the alleged breach by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of the Electoral Act 2022 with respect to the electronic transmission of election results following Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly elections.

These violations, according to them, are based on the requirements of electronic transmission of polling unit results, which INEC introduced to ensure the elections are free, fair and credible.

Results of elections from 176,846 polling units were expected to have been transmitted to the INEC Result Viewing Portal immediately the votes were collated at every polling unit but the presiding officers at various polling units lamented their inability to transmit the results, especially those of the presidential election, through the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), an equipment issued to the officers for such purpose.

What does the law say on the electronic transmission of election results? Is the right of Nigerians to a credible election as guaranteed by the law being violated by INEC?

Procedure for voting
The Electoral Act provides in section 47 that a voter in an election must present himself with his voter’s card to a presiding officer for accreditation at the polling unit in the constituency in which his name is registered. The presiding officer will also use a smart card reader or any other technological device for the accreditation of voters, to verify, confirm or authenticate the particulars of the voters.

The law is also states that “where a smart card reader or any other technological device fails to function in any unit and a fresh card reader or technological device is not brought, the election in that unit shall be cancelled and another election shall be scheduled within 24 hours”.

Counting, recording and transmission of votes
Section 60 of the Electoral Act states that “the presiding officer shall, after counting the votes at the polling unit, enter the votes scored by each candidate in a form to be prescribed by the commission as the case may be”.

More so, section 60 (5) of the Act states that the presiding officer shall transfer the results including total number of accredited voters and the results of the ballot in a manner as prescribed by the commission”. The prescribed manner here is the BVAS, which INEC introduced to ensure that the electoral process is credible. The BVAS was introduced by INEC in line with Section 148 of the Electoral Act, which gives INEC power to make guidelines and regulations to ensure the full effect of the law.



Legal experts criticise INEC’s actions
Inibehe Effiong, lawyer and political activist, said “the electronic transmission of votes provided by the Electoral Act and in the guidelines issued by INEC has not been complied with”.

He said: “The INEC chairman has compromised and made it clear that he has no credibility and reputation to organise credible elections by first failing to offer a cogent
explanation for the blatant non-compliance with the law with regards to the electronic transmission of votes.

“This has repudiated what should have ordinarily been a credible election process.”

According to him, the provisions of the Electoral Act under section 60, which provides for the mode of transmission, have not been complied with. “This makes the entire election process questionable. In fact, this election lacks credibility and should be nullified,” Effiong said.

Adedeji Adeyemi, a Lagos-based lawyer, said: “The fact that the results were not transferred from the polling units has made nonsense of the entire process.

“INEC is in breach of the provisions of the law under sections 60 and 64 (4) of the Electoral Act.”

Section 64 (4) of the Electoral Act states that “a collation officer or returning officer at an election shall collate and announce the result of an election, subject to his or her verification and confirmation that the number of accredited voters stated on the collated result are correct and consistent with the number of accredited voters recorded and transmitted directly from polling units and that the votes stated on the collated result are correct and consistent with the votes or results recorded and transmitted directly from polling units”.

Adeyemi said: “There were no statements by the returning officers that the results being called out were verified and confirmed that they were those directly transmitted from the polling unit.

“All these show that the entire process is inconsistent with the various laws including the 1999 Constitution and the Electoral Act 2022 and to this effect, the whole process is void. Nigerians have the right to credible elections and INEC must uphold this duty to Nigerians.”

The Electoral guidelines for Osun elections is purely different from the electoral guidelines for the February elections. In the electoral act, INEC determines the mode of transmission. In the February elections, INEC chose the electronic mode of transmission in its guidelines and jettisoned it in the middle of the game.
so u don't know that judgment of Court esp supreme Court are precedent for other judgement... Isn't same INEC that conduct Osun elections... when adeleke was declared winner by INEC did they use online or paper to do that? Answer and see the situation
