Inec: Mahmood Yakubu Promises That Election Result Wont Take Long Than 2015 by mrox4d(m): 4:45am On Feb 21, 2019 |
The Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC, has announced the
timeframe for result declaration of the 2019
Presidential Election.
The commission assured that the results
would not take longer than the 2015
elections, in spite of the number of
presidential candidates, size of the result
sheets and increased voter population.
INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu said
this on Wednesday in Abuja while briefing
journalists on the state of preparedness of
the commission for the polls.
Yakubu said the commission was working
to ensure that it does not keep Nigerians
waiting for days without declaring the
results.
He said the time limit would not exceed
what obtained in 2015.
Recall that in 2015, while the Presidential
Election held on a Saturday, a winner was
not declared until the following Wednesday.
Mahmood said: “Even though this time
around we have more presidential
candidates than in 2015, we have more
registered voters than we had in 2015, the
size of the result sheet is bigger than we
had in 2015, but we are committed to
concluding the process for the Presidential
elections roughly about the same time that
we concluded the 2015 general elections.”
“We will do whatever we can to ensure that
we speedily conclude the process but we
won’t sacrifice accuracy for speed”, he
declared.
