Spokesman Of The Commission, Festus Okoye, In A Statement Said INEC Is Not Contemplating A Revert To The Manual Process Of Result Transmission.
Okoye Said The Confusion Regarding What Method Has Been Adopted Stems From A Recent Short Interview Granted To A National Newspaper On The Procedure For Result Management During Elections.
He Said Some People Have Interpreted The Explanation On Result Management Procedure To Mean That The Commission Has Jettisoned The Electronic Transmission Of Result And Reverted To The Manual Process.
For Clarity, Okoye Explained That The Procedure For Result Transmission Remains The Same As In Recent Governorship Elections In Ekiti And Osun States, Adding That There Will Be No Change In All Future Elections, Including The 2023 General Election.
Okoye Who Doubles As Chairman Of INEC’s Information And Voter Education Committee, On Behalf Of The Commission Appealed To All Nigerians To Avail Themselves Of The Provisions Of The Electoral Act And The Commission’s Detailed Explanation Of The Procedure And Not Reach A Conclusion On The Basis Of Media Headlines.
