The Obidient Movement has raised concerns over glitches recorded in the upload of results from several polling units to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Results Viewing Portal. They allege that the results were not being reflected on the server.
This incident is happening after voting in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Area Council elections, where voters across the six councils, Abuja Municipal Area Council, Bwari, Gwagwalada, Kuje, Abaji and Kwali are electing chairmen and councillors.
However, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide, Yunusa Tanko, in a statement on Saturday titled “Alert from the Obidient Movement Headquarters”, called on supporters and Nigerians to remain vigilant over the collation process.
The statement read, “Information reaching us indicates that the IREV server is active but not displaying results that were reportedly uploaded successfully from various polling units.
“All Obidients and Nigerians are therefore encouraged to remain alert and vigilant. If necessary, we urge everyone to proceed peacefully to the Area 10 INEC office and Karu for the collation process and observe developments closely.
“Ensure that you have the accurate results from your respective polling units for proper verification. Let us remain calm, law-abiding, and committed to protecting the integrity of the electoral process through peaceful and lawful means.”
However, at the time of filing this report, INEC had yet to officially respond to the Obidient Movement’s concerns regarding the alleged glitch.
