The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has successfully uploaded 90.33 per cent of the results from the Edo governorship election to its Results Viewing Portal, IReV, as of the time of filing of this report.
Accordingly, results from 4,082 out of the 4,519 polling
units where elections were held in the state have been successfully transmitted
on the portal.
This means that only results from 437 PUs are yet to be
uploaded on IReV.
Earlier, the Resident Electoral Commissioner for Edo,
Anugbum Onuoha, reassured the public during an interview on Arise Television
that electronic transmission of results would proceed smoothly, barring any
network disruptions.
“We have trained the operators for the BVAS. They are set.
BVAS is to accredit the voters and to know the total number of voters that will
vote at that level and that polling unit.
“After that, the voters will start voting. At the end of the
day, they will count the results, and it will be uploaded to our IReV,” he
assured.
This comes as the Peoples Democratic Party’s Asue Ighodalo,
All Progressives Congress’ Monday Okpebholo, Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party
and others compete for votes from 2.2 million voters with permanent vote cards
across the 18 local government areas in the state.
NigerianEye earlier
reported that INEC uploaded 86.55 per cent of the results on IReV.
