Mahmood Yakubu, chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), says results of the upcoming governorship elections in Bayelsa, Imo and Kogi states will be uploaded on the agency’s result viewing portal (IReV).
According to NAN, Yakubu spoke on Saturday while supervising the INEC’s mock accreditation exercise in Kogi.
Yakubu said the commission would adhere to the procedure “as provided by law” and make results available to the public in real-time during the gubernatorial elections.
He added that the process was also tested during the mock exercise, which was held across the three states.
“The method is as provided by law, electronic accreditation, electronic upload of results on the IREV portal, and that is why we are doing this mock,” Yakubu said.
“That is going to be the procedure, and it’s for that reason that I will advise you also for those who are registered on the IREV portal.
“In the next two hours or so, go to the IREV portal, and you will see the results of the mock accreditation from all three states.
“We are uploading, as we have done in previous elections.”
The off-season governorship elections are billed to be held in Bayelsa, Imo and Kogi on November 11.
INEC said 5,409,438 Nigerians are expected to vote during the polls across the three states.
