INEC uploads 66,634 results to IReV portal

THE Independent National Electoral Commission has so far posted 66,634 election results from governorship and state Houses of Assembly elections.

Recall that opposition parties and some Nigerians criticized INEC for failing to upload results immediately on its result viewing portal during the February 25 presidential election, but the commission explained that technical glitches marred result transmission, which many critics refused to accept.

However, a few days to the March 18 elections, INEC said that the technical issues had been rectified and assured Nigerians that election results would be transmitted immediately.

Checks on the portal today at 9 pm showed election results were uploaded in 28 states. They include Ogun State, 3,631 results were submitted; Plateau, 2,552; Zamfara, 782; Yobe, 1,231; Taraba, 973; Sokoto, 1,017; Rivers, 4,042; Oyo; 4,537; Niger, 1,810; Nasarawa, 1,986; Lagos, 7,014; Kwara, 1,687; Kebbi, 753; Katsina. 2,285; Kano, 3,452; Kaduna, 4,537; Jigawa, 1,900; Gombe, 1,124; Enugu, 3,172; Ebonyi, 1,814; Delta, 2,556; Cross River, 1,477; Borno, 1,956; Benue, 2,481; Bauchi, 1,835; Akwa Ibom, 2,414; Adamawa, 1,871; and Abia, 1,745.
