The President of the Association of Licensed Telecommunications Operators of Nigeria, Mr Gbenga Adebayo, speaks to TOBI AWORINDE on the technology of electronic transmission in transmitting election results and how it eases the burden on the electoral processspeaking, what logistics are required to successfully transmit election results electronically?

If right of way is provided and linked for those sites, if you ask me, I think a window of six to 12 months, we should be able to deliver on all the sites. In essence, you need the time to order the equipment, lay the fibre, install and commission. I would say a minimum of six months and not more than 12 months to complete this project. You can then say ‘national infrastructure upgrade.’Expertise we have, and we are very proud of that.

When they talk about e-transmission, it’s just to send reports electronically. So, it’s not like you need a special transport medium to do it. It’s just collecting results in a particular place, collating it and posting it, so to say. It’s not like you are looking for a special card reader or card device to do some form of algorithm or processing. No! All they are saying is, ‘Take an end result and transmit it.

Do you think e-transmission is an important step towards the realisation of e-voting in the near future?
