The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has described as baseless, allegations made by the All Progressives Congress, APC, regarding the purported smuggling of Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, BVAS, machines and voters’ registers into the INEC office by members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
In a statement by Dr.
Anugbum Onuoha, Resident Electoral Commissioner, REC, Edo State, INEC said that a thorough investigation has been carried out to find the allegations as baseless and unsubstantiated.
The APC, which was subsequently declared winner of the election by INEC, had made the claim during the September 21, 2024 governorship election in the state.
“In light of these findings, we are in full compliance with the recent court order directing the inspection of electoral materials, including the BVAS machines and voters’ registers.
“INEC is prepared to facilitate this inspection process, ensuring transparency and adherence to the rule of law.
