The 2021 electoral amendment bill is a masterstroke.

If signed by the president, rigging at the collation centers will be eliminated. Also,
INEC appointees will be non-partisan due to harsh punishment & this will prevent result tampering.
What happened in Imo where a notable Senator was declared winner under duress will not be repeated.

Electronic accreditation will become mandatory. Recall that Buhari defeated Jonathan mainly because some places were allowed to use manual accreditation.

Lastly, What happened in Imo State where Governor Hope Uzodimma misled the Supreme Court by presenting a result which shows that total votes cast at the election exceeded voters accreditation will be eliminated.

The requirements in summary:

1. Electronic transmission of results.
2. Political neutrality of INEC personnel upon appointment.
3. Early Commencement Of Campaigns. That is 5 months before the election date.
4. Early Conduct Of Primaries.
5. Election results declared under duress can be reviewed by inec.
6. Redefine Over-voting.
7. Electronic accreditation of voters
8. Early release of election funds to INEC

The fear is electronic transmission nothing else ...no political party have the structure to rig in every polling unit ...it's impossible .LGA collection centres are where rigging is done ... electronic transmission would reduce rigging by 60%

Second reason is removal of manual accreditation ,.check core northern votes 60% or more were accredited by manual method that can be easily rigged n manipulated ...compare that to south of less than 30% ...the phantom votes from the north would be exposed
