LP loses bid to enforce electronic collation, transmission of results

In a judgement delivered by Justice Emeka Nwite, the court held that only the electoral commission is entitled to issue directives on how a polling unit presiding officer should transfer election results, including the total number of accredited persons and results of the ballot.

The judgement was on a suit filed by the Labour Party and marked as FHC/ABJ/CS/1454/2022 with INEC as the sole defendant.
