INEC, in a 25-page document titled: “Position Paper No. 1 of 2021 on Electronic Transmission of Election Results,” released yesterday in Abuja, said contrary to misconceptions, it has developed adequate structures and processes to successfully transmit election results electronically.In the document signed by its Chairman, Prof.

Continuing, INEC said: “Our position is not meant to support or undermine any side in the ongoing debates. Our understanding is that as a responsible corporate citizen, particularly one whose constitutional responsibilities are at stake, INEC should lend its voice to such a momentous issue of public concern.

INEC maintained that it had developed a longstanding partnership with several government agencies and organisations in its determination to establish a world-class electoral process, insisting that its collaboration with NCC and Mobile Network Operators should be seen in this regard. On the state of infrastructure required to transmit results electronically, the Commission disclosed that the INEC/NCC Joint Technical Committee on “Electronic Transmission of Election Results” established in 2018 found that mobile networks adequately covered 93 per cent of INEC Polling Units, with capacity to cover the outstanding seven per cent, adding that the argument that 2G cannot transmit election data was incorrect.

They're elected to serve d interest of Nigerians so if they know their duties, they shouldn't entertain fear or being bias to serve d people that elected them, but they are only interested in their political interest & loyalty to their political parties, presidency and president
