INEC Lists Hurdles to Anambra, 2023 Elections

Ahead of the governorship election, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has identified five critical areas of concern and challenges likely to confront the commission in the conduct of the elections.

According to the INEC National Commissioner in charge of Voter Education and Publicity, Mr. Festus Okoye, these areas of concern include, expanding voter access to Polling Units in the context of a growing population and the growth of new settlements across the country; and validation of the Voters roll and Continuous Voters Registration (CVR) in the shadow of the COVID- 19 pandemic.

Others are repeal and re-enactment of a new Electoral Act that would guarantee the conduct of free, fair, transparent elections; deepening technology in the electoral process and rolling out Electoral Voting Machines for the Anambra State Governorship election.

Okoye said that equally of great concern to the commission is how to increase voter turnout in future elections and how to effectively manage electoral success recorded in the last two off -season elections in Edo and Ondo states.

Okoye spoke Saturday in Leggings, Nasarawa State at the close of a five-day Workshop for Review of INEC Voter Education Manual .

INEC Voter Education Manual is being reviewed by the Department of Voter Education and Publicity (VEP) with the aim of identifying and including best methods of deg voter education messages to increase citizens participation in the electoral process.

The is ed by the Westminster Foundation for Democracy.

Okoye said for the commission to achieve the concerns enumerated above, the department (VEP) must design new, creative and innovate messages that would address the electoral concerns and challenges of the youth and students population.

He reminded VEP Staff that in deg voter education messages they must be able to compete effectively on the social media and “our narratives and messages must be clear, concise and believable.”

Okoye said while deg voter education messages, “INEC must take on board societal changes and dynamics” and urged the participants to design new methodologies of delivering Civic and Voter Education in the context of a pandemic.

He informed participants that the commission has resolved to sustain the momentum of the successes recorded in the Edo and Ondo governorship elections and also increase voter turnout in elections through the provision of access to the Polling Units.

Realising the fact that the commission cannot succeed alone in the task of conducting successful elections, the commissioner said, “we must build multi-sector coalitions for the sustenance of the electoral process and consolidation of democracy.”

On the issue of voter , Okoye said that the commission is determined to clean up the voters’ and all those that are eligible and constitutionally qualified to be ed.

The commissioner commended the department for its robust voter education and publicity activities in the past years which led to the successes recorded by the commission, adding that, “without VEP, we would not have achieved the new face of INEC.”

All Eyes On Them.

Voters education
Expanding the populace of voters in the nearest future

These are the usual jargons INEC speak at every close of elections.
At the end of the day, babies will vote in some part of the country and the results will still be the same status quo.

INEC, the only government agency that has polling booths all over the country even without governmental developments getting to most of these wards

I see a startup party outside APC and PDP winning the governorship election in Anambra, I see the results seriously challenged in court, I see many uncertainties, I see power going to the new party, I see APC trying to revisit the verdict after 14 months, I see them in court, I see them loose the case. This I have seen.

On the issue of voter , Okoye said that the commission is determined to clean up the voters’ and all those that are eligible and constitutionally qualified to be ed.

THIS DEMOCRACY BUSINESS SUPPOSED STOP BEFORE TURNED TO BE WAR

..

I'm sure there won't be a problems in Zamfara and Borno.

Ok

Dont worry about Anambra... the Underdog would most likely win..

The louder you are, the less Igbos consider you for elective positions.

God Bless INEC.
GOD BLESS NIGERIA.
..
I just hope that with this new Electoral Voting Machines, it would make the results of Polling Units, Wards Collated Results, LGAs Collated Results, States Collated Results, Final Collated Results to be easily and readily available on the INEC’s Online Virtual Results Portal.
..
..
But then, I keep asking the same questions as always:
Why is it that INEC are only interested in the Electoral Voting Machines, which has to do with only Electronic-Voting alone?
..
With what the INEC is currently planning, After the elections at the Polling-units, the various Electoral Officers would carry the various Voting Machines in supposedly security-guarded vehicles, to where they would be manually accessed and manually collated.
..
This is very wrong.!!
..
Since the votes are done electronically, it is best practice for the votes to also be transmitted electronically - and simultaneously - to All the respective and appropriate Wards Electoral Collation Machines, the LGAs Electoral Collation Machines, the States Electoral Collation Machines, and so on.
..
INEC did Not mention anything about Electronic-Collation in all the things they enumerated, neither did they mention Electronic-Transmission.

But I Posted this news first though..
Straight From The INEC News Website.
