The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says there is no going back on the use of card readers for the April 11, 2015 governorship and state houses of assembly election.
According to Augusta Ogakwu, secretary of the commission, the provision of the guidelines for the conduct of the 2015 general election, which outlined what is to be done if a card reader fails and cannot be replaced by the commission within a specified time frame (i.e. reschedule the election to the next day), will be enforced.
“The relaxation of the guideline on 28th March 2015 was only with respect to the presidential and national assembly elections held on that date,” she said in a statement.
“The commission has reviewed the operation of the card reader in the 28th March elections, identified the challenges, and has taken adequate measures to address them.”
