Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Mahmood Yakubu, has said that there will be no use of the electronic voting system in the 2019 general elections.

The chairman of the electoral body disclosed this when he spoke at the International Press Institute world conference which took place in Abuja.

“There is no electronic balloting in 2019. In other words, there will be no electronic voting in the next general election but technology is already being used in many aspects of the processes. Electronic voting should be the ultimate step in the chain involving five inter-related processes,” he said

Some Nigerians have called for the use of electronic voting in the forthcoming election. They argue that electoral voting will prevent rigging and electoral malpractice during the election.

Fear fear! It failed them in kd, trying to manipulate the machine in their favour

I share your concerns. Due to the fact that rigged elections bring the wrong persons to power. However, ai hv worked for INEC b4 as ad hoc staff. The current system is almost foolproof. Technically spking, the only way you could rig election with this system by paying pple to vote for u. Cnt go into details.



However, na naija we dey. Anything is possible. Dts why we need to all open our eyes.

Ok finger's cross let's wait and see this gvmt magic

Until electronic system is used in Nigeria, I doubt any free and fair elections. Besides some people will feel cheated if we go electronic. If you know u know

A lot of people don't know we are not using electronic voting yet. If we use real electronic voting then the situation of multiple registration and voting by same person can be better managed.

And that should be through multiple registration. As long as we don't have a robust social numbering or citizen registry scheme we will keep going round circles.

Whatever. Just don't try to rig

There's only one reason why.

lol

Just give it to the northerners, they are good at the game of politics....

They dam the consequences of any decision and act on it as much as it profits them, they are not liberal in nature so what you feel about their moves never bothers them.

The yorubas actually gave them this soft landing, a quick contrast between GEJ and PMB shows they are almost operating at same level. But the yorubas that contrl the press choose to echo one and mute the other - Thats all

Quick example - Chibok girls were alleged to be kidnapped on the day GEJ had his convention/party whatever - the yoruba press shouted and got angry for him not calling off his jamboree

On the other hand, PMB was celebrating/fighting (dont quote me, you saw the video they broke the mans head) with party members in last APC convention/Wresting bout while blood letting and sharing was ongoing in plateau state! The yorubas kept mute. ChannelsTV even deleted the link to the APC wrestling match at the convention arena....

Do i go on?
#Get That Visa
#Leave This Country

The reason is that Baba want to come back, so he will not allow any factor that may hinder the smooth planning to rig the 2019 election. Well, for those it may concern, am on my way to Ecuador, am just tire of this un-ending story story

Ok

Ya or nay

Just Resign. You are Biased.

its okay that way

Nigeria!! Spits! When other countries are considering voting on the Blockchain network for transparency, you want to take us years back not considering billions previously allocated to INEC for this in the past. So you can rig as you like.
