In a statement released earlier today, although dated 2nd April, The Independent National Electoral Commission said that only card readers will be used for Governorship and House of Assembly elections on Saturday. See the full text of the message after the cut.....
The Independent National
Electoral Commission wishes to inform all Nigerians that Card Readers will be
used for the April 11, 2015 Elections.
The provision of the
Guidelines for the conduct of the 2015 General Elections 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.
2. The relaxation of the Guideline
on 28th March 2015 was only with respect to the Presidential
and National Assembly elections held on that date.
3. 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.
Mrs. Augusta C. Ogakwu,
Secretary to the Commission
2nd April, 2015
