Atiku, PDP Asking Us For Server That We Don’t Have, INEC Tells by tundemania: 5:43pm On Jun 13, 2019 |
The Independent National Electoral Commission on Thursday insisted that it had no electronic server being sought to be accessed and inspected by the Peoples Democratic Party and its presidential candidate in the February 23, 2019 presidential election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. The commission had earlier denied the existence of such server in its reply filed on April 10, 2019 to oppose Atiku and PDP’s petition pending before the five-man tribunal. The petitioners are by their petition challenging the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari and his All Progressives Congress at the last presidential election. INEC, Buhari and the APC who are the respondents to the petition and to the petitioners’ application for access to the server used for the election, on Thursday, asked the Justice Mohammed Garba-led panel to dismiss the petitioners’ request. The three respondents, through their respective counsels, reminded the tribunal that the Court of Appeal had, on May 6, 2019 (before the petition was filed on May 18), dismissed a similar application filed by the petitioners. Represented at the Thursday’s proceedings by its lead counsel, Mr. Yunus Usman (SAN), INEC said the application by the petitioners amounted to asking the commission to produce what it did not have. Urging the tribunal to dismiss the application, Usman said, “We attached as Exhibit 1, the enrolled order of this honourable court made on May 6, 2019 refusing all the prayers of the petitioners in this application. “They said we should bring what we don’t have.” INEC had declared Buhari and APC the winner of the February 23 election. It said Buhari polled 15,191,847 votes to defeat his closest rival, Atiku, who polled 11,262,978 votes. But Atiku and the PDP, in their petition filed on March 18 challenging the outcome of the poll, contended that “from the data” obtained from INEC’s server, “the true, actual and correct results” showed that they polled a total of 18,356,732 votes to defeat Buhari whom they said scored 16,741,430 votes. By calculation, Atiku and PDP claimed to have defeated Buhari by 1,615,302 votes. The petitioners, through their lead counsel, Dr. Livy Ozoukwu, subsequently filed an application on May 8, 2019, seeking an order of the tribunal permitting them to access and inspect the INEC’s server into which results and other data were allegedly transmitted during the February 23 poll. A senior member of the petitioners’ legal team, Chief Chris Uche (SAN), moved the application on Thursday. Uche urged the tribunal to grant the application in the interest of justice, transparency and neutrality, saying it was necessary for his team to be able to maintain the petition. He said, “The application in summary asks for access to and inspection of the server of the INEC and the smart card readers used in the conduct of the presidential election. “We have addressed the issues in our counter-affidavit, written address and reply on points of law and we urge your lordships that the application be granted as prayed in the interest of justice, transparency and neutrality. “The application is necessary for the maintenance of this petition.” Reacting first, INEC’s lead counsel, Usman, referred the tribunal to his client’s counter-affidavit filed on May 23 in opposition to the application. He added that the Court of Appeal having earlier refused similar application, same should not be granted again. The leader of Buhari’s legal team, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN), also urged the tribunal to dismiss the application.

NOC1: This is not the time to infer Let Prof Yakubu come and tell under oath what the laid down process for the election was and what he thinks actually happened From there we will know next steps Under normal circumstances INEC should be co-operating with the courts, and not defending the outcomes of the process The only reason INEC feel a duty to defend the 2019 election result is because they were the actual riggers of the election Professor Yakubu will go to prison for criminal conspiracy to rig the elections and pervert justice if he does not take time. He has been caught pants down and the earlier he starts Co-operating the better for him! 102 Likes 13 Shares |

INEC Statement On Card Reader Demonstration The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Monday, 09th March 2015, met to consider field reports from the public demonstration of Smart Card Readers (SCRs) conducted in 12 states on Saturday, March 07th 2015. The states were Rivers and Delta (South-South), Kano and Kebbi (North-West), Anambra and Ebonyi (South East), Ekiti and Lagos (South West), Bauchi and Taraba (North East) as well as Niger and Nasarawa (North Central). The Commission observed that its decision to deploy SCRs for the 2015 general elections have FOUR main objectives, namely: (i) To verify Permanent Voter cards (PVCs) presented by voters at polling units and ensure that they are genuine, INEC-issued (not cloned) cards. From the reports on Saturday’s exercise, this objective was achieved 100 per cent. (ii) To biometrically authenticate the person who presents a PVC at the polling unit and ensure that he/she is the legitimate holder of the card. In this regard, there were a few issues in some states during the public demonstration. Overall, 59% of voters who turned out for the demonstration had their fingerprints successfully authenticated. But the Commission, in agreement with registered political parties, had provided in the approved Guidelines for the conduct of the 2015 elections that where biometric authentication of a legitimate holder of a genuine PVC becomes challenging, there could be physical authentication of the person and completion of an Incident Form, to allow the person to vote. (iii) The SCRs provide disaggregated data of accredited voters in male/female and elderly/youth categories – a disaggregation that is vital for research and planning purposes, but which INEC until now had been unable to achieve. The demonstration on Saturday fully served this objective. (iv) The Smart Card Reader sends the data of all accredited voters to INEC’s central server, equipping the Commission to be able to audit figures subsequently filed by polling officials at the PU and, thereby, be able to determine if fraudulent alterations were made. The public demonstration also succeeded wholly in this regard. The Commission nevertheless took a serious view of the high rate of the SCRs’ failure to authenticate voters’ fingerprints in some areas, particularly in Ebonyi State, and has decided to thoroughly investigate the cause; as well as repeat the public demonstration in that state. This demonstration will be conducted in the particular Registration Area involved in the last exercise, namely Izzi Unuhu (Abakaliki Local Government Area); as well as in Ibii/Oziza Registration Area (Afikpo North LGA). The repeat demonstration will be on Saturday, March 14th2015. INEC is satisfied that the use of SCRs in the 2015 general elections will add tremendous transparency and credibility to the accreditation process on Election Day. The Commission hereby reassures the public that it will do everything necessary to ensure that the processes of the elections are seamless, free, fair, credible and peaceful. Kayode Robert Idowu Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman 10th March 2015. Source: https://inecnigeria.org/news-all/inec-statement-on-card-reader-demonstration/ Conclusion: Smart Card readers work with the INEC server. Without central server, the smart card readers will not function and will be useless. If the 2019 presidential elections was conducted with smart card readers then there is a server. In addition, I recall that INEC budgeted the sum of N220million for INEC server maintenance during the 2019 elections which was duly approved by the FG. So, INEC where is your server? 130 Likes 18 Shares |

adekolaelect: The electoral act recognises INEC guideline as the basis for the election and as such gives legal backing to whatever laid down provisions INEC made for the election. INEC included electronic transmission of results in its own guideline, budgeted for it, NASS approved money to support it, INEC trained its own staff on how to transmit result electronically, granted press conferences on the eve of election that results were to be transmitted electronically, and INEC staff with authority and responsibility are also bearing witness to the transmission of results on election day by electronic media in the face of all this reality INEC and Prof Yakubu can not just wake up 3 days after the elections and claim none of the above happened just because they falsified the results in favour of Buhari That will just not happen The courts will have a hard time to rule against the facts. INEC will have a hard time explaining either why it did not follow its own procedure OR why they are denying their own procedure they followed! Buhari has already lost legitimacy and any claim he has to power is gone for good. If he sits tight and does not allow the courts do their job then he will simply be legitimising a "coup de tat" because our democracy will in effect become pointless! The people's votes must count otherwise let military come back! we cant continue to spend 242 billion on a meaningless electoral process. PDP/Atiku should demand that Prof Jega is questioned under Oath! Let him lie to the court and deny there was no server lets see! 45 Likes 8 Shares |

PDP mumu no be small, thank God buhari refused to sign the electoral law facilitating electronic transmission In simple terms avoiding all legal terminology, PDP depends on evidence from their opponent, to prosecute a case against the said opponent. You claim your neighbor eat your meat and your landlord ask for evidence, then you point at his tummy saying you hacked his tummy and saw your meat. Nigeria doesn't even have 80% network coverage of its landmass, so which network did PDP cardreader used in transmitting the result they cooked up, so polling unit in the bayelsa creeks, and maiduguri desert transmitted result to abuja server. Wow PDP 5G network.
