INEC<\/a> store in neighbouring Imo State, Yakub who spoke to the candidates in the poll during an interactive session in Awka said the materials were safe.<\/p>\nThere was uproar when it was earlier announced that the materials would come from Owerri, considering the position of the Imo State governor, Hope Uzodimma, that the All Progressives Congress would win the Anambra governorship election by \u201cseen and unseen hands.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Yakubu disclosed a day to the election, the commission would invite candidates, the media, election monitors and other stakeholders to witness the deployment of the materials to the various local government areas.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cThe Resident Electoral Commissioner for Anambra State has just briefed us on our detailed preparations for the election, including logistics and the recruitment, training and deployment of election duty staff.<\/p>\n
\u201cNon-sensitive materials have been delivered to the 21 Local Government Areas of the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe sensitive materials are secure in the branch of the Central Bank of Nigeria here in Awka. As is always the case on the eve of major elections, INEC will invite political parties, civil society organisations and the media to the CBN tomorrow, Thursday, November 4, 2021 to inspect the sensitive materials and to witness their movement to the various Local Government Areas under security escort.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy the same arrangement, the materials will be delivered to the Registration Areas or Wards on Friday, November 5, 2021 to facilitate the opening of Polling Units at 8.30am on Election Day i.e. Saturday, November 6, 2021.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to assure all voters in Anambra State that in designing the sensitive materials for the election, the commission has introduced additional visible and invisible security features, including different colour codes. Materials have also been customised by Local Government Areas and Polling Units.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me therefore warn those who may attempt to compromise the process that we have put in place sufficient safeguards to detect counterfeits. We are also determined to prosecute perpetrators of electoral malpractice, including any election duty staff found to be complicit.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe choice of the next Governor of Anambra State is in the hands of the eligible voters and their will must prevail.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said Anambra would be the first state where the BVAS would be deployed for a governorship election.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn Saturday, November 6, 2021, Anambra State will make history as the first governorship election in Nigeria in which the commission will deploy the BVAS device.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis new device replaces the Smart Card Reader used in previous elections since 2015. We are satisfied with the pilot deployment of the BVAS in the Isoko South I State Constituency Bye-election in Delta State on September 11, 2021. The BVAS has the dual capacity for fingerprint and facial authentication of voters.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is to guard against voting by identity theft where one person uses another person\u2019s Permanent Voter Card to vote using the incident form. With this development, the use of the incident form is abolished. No voter without a genuine PVC will vote. No voter who has not been successfully accredited electronically using the BVAS will vote.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the same time, the BVAS is also equipped with a camera. Therefore, it has the capacity to snap Polling Unit level result and upload the same to the INEC Result Viewing (IReV) portal so that citizens can view results as election is concluded in each Polling Unit.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, there is no need for the Z-Pad since its functions have been embedded in the BVAS. I am glad to report that all the BVAS required for the election on Saturday have been configured and delivered to Anambra State. Election duty staff have also been trained in the use of the device and we have sufficient technical staff to respond to any glitches that may occur.\u201d<\/p>\n
The INEC chairman assured the Anambra electorate that the process would be credible, saying that in his avowed commitment to transparency, the commission had compiled a comprehensive list of the polling units without voters as well as those having under 50 registered voters.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast week in Abuja, we had a special consultative meeting with the leadership of all political parties in and shared with them copies of the comprehensive locations of these Polling Units. On this note, let me reassure all stakeholders of the commission\u2019s commitment to inclusivity,\u201d Yakub said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
