Tinubu ahead in Nigeria election as glitches delay vote count
"INEC's lack of efficient planning in critical stages and effective public communication reduced trust in the process," the European Union observer mission said in a statement.
By 1700 GMT on Monday, INEC had uploaded results from just 66,167 polling units out of a total of 178,846, its website showed. "We regret to say that we have lost confidence in the results being collated and announced," Akin Oshintokun, director of Obi's campaign, told reporters. "We hereby call on the INEC to ... follow its own guidelines or completely cancel the entire election."The election was highly dependent on communications technology that may have seemed doomed to fail in a country with such poor internet coverage, and the failures open the way for legal challenges against the results.
