Former INEC Chairman, Jega Clears Air On INEC Server Controversy by CGMedia: 10:03am On Jun 18, 2019 |
[center][/center] Former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Attahiru Jega, has denied issuing a statement on the existence of a server during his time as head of the electoral body, Igbere TV reports. Igbere TV recalls that Jega, in a circulated statement on social media, was quoted as saying that INEC server exists, and that election results were transmitted electronically during his time as chairman. “INEC server exist and it is functional. Let’s call a spade a spade. I was once INEC chairman and results were transmitted electronically during my time,” the viral post read. The statement drew comments from Nigerians who called for the resignation of the current chairman of INEC, Mahmood Yakubu, over claims that the commission had no server for the 2019 general elections. Reacting, however, Prof. Jega denied making such statement. On the INEC server controversy, he said that the commission under his watch did not, at any time, transmit results electronically. “This is another lie mischievously attributed to me. I never said this. Besides, INEC during my time did not do electronic transmission of results. Under our current electoral laws, it is illegal to do so. “I am at a loss as to why some reckless people go the extra mile to attribute things to me, which I have never said. I have never said this. It is a repugnant lie,” Jega told newsmen. http://igberetvnews.com/781684/former-inec-chairman-jega-clears-air-on-inec-server-controversy/ Cc: Lalasticlala, Mynd44, OAM4J
