Some Nigerian have taken to the streets of Abuja to stage a
peaceful protest over the outcome of the Saturday, February 25,
Presidential and National Assembly elections.
The protesters contested that INEC failed to keep its promise of
using the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System BVAS to transmit the
results collated during the elections.
The electoral body had promised before the elections that the
results from polling units will be uploaded immediately to its central
server, iRev, for quick collation of the results. However during the
election, the BVAS were said not have been working and the results were
collated manually. This has caused many to doubt the authenticity of the
results being released by the electoral group.
The protesters demanded the INEC chairman to fulfill his promise of
conducting an electoral exercise that is transparent and open.
