Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, says it has put in place a website for monitoring elections.
The Commission says henceforth, results from polling units can be watched real time.
Festus Okoye, INEC Information Commissioner, stated this in a statement.
According to him, the portal “will strengthen the transparency in the election result management system.”
The use will start with the Nasarawa Central state constituency poll.
It would also be deployed during the Edo and Ondo governorship elections.
The scheduled dates are September 19 and October 20, respectively.
INEC clarified that this does not mean electronic collation of results.
Okoye assured that INEC was determined to ensure that votes are not only correctly counted, but that they also count.
The statement said the dedicated public portal named INEC RESULT VIEWING (IReV), will enable Nigerians to view polling unit results real time as the voting ends on election day.
