On Sunday, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said that over 170,000 polling unit results for the presidential and National Assembly elections held on February 25 have been uploaded to its Result Viewing Portal (IReV).
The Commission also stated that the reconfiguration of the Bimodal Voter Registration Systems (BVAS) would be finished by Tuesday in readiness for the March 18 elections for governor and the state legislature.
“As of the last time, over 170,000 of those results have been uploaded,” INEC National Commissioner, Festus Okoye, stated on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.
“As you are aware, we are reconfiguring the BVAS for purposes of the governorship and state assembly elections, and any BVAS that was used for the presidential and National Assembly elections that do not push to the accreditation backend, the data relating to the conduct of the presidential and National Assembly elections will not be reconfigured.
“In fact, the BVAS will not allow itself to be reconfigured or reset if the entire data is not pushed to the accreditation backend.
“I’m sure that by Tuesday when we hope to complete the resettling of the BVAS for the purposes of the governorship and state assembly elections, the results in all the places where elections were conducted would have been pushed to the accreditation backend.”
