INEC Commences Election Result Collation In Edo State

INEC has commenced the election result collation in Edo State.

 

Glamtush reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has begun collation of the gubernatorial election results in Edo State.

 

The returning officer is Prof. Faruk Adamu Kuta, Vice-Chancellor, Federal University of Technology, Minna.

The commission earlier announced that it was set to commence state-levelled collation of the governorship election.

This was revealed by the National Commissioner & Member Information and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Haruna during a press conference on Sunday.

INEC also said it had activated the INEC Result Viewing (IReV) portal to upload the polling unit results in earnest.

 

The same results have also been collated from all the 192 Wards.

It said, “Similarly, collation has been concluded in most of the Local Government Areas and the designated officials are already at the collation centre in Benin City or on their way. We are set to commence State-level collation.”

“For the avoidance of doubt, the collation of result will proceed as provided by the Electoral Act 2022 and our regulations and guidelines for the conduct of elections. There is a mechanism for redressing complaints during collation, including the power to review results declared under duress. The Commission will not hesitate to invoke such powers where necessary.

It advised all accredited party agents, observers and the media to be granted unimpeded access to all collation centres.

 

The commission also called on the security agencies to continue to maintain the same vigilance and professionalism that led to the peaceful conduct of the election as we conclude the process.
