The Independent National Electoral Commission has been asked to come clean on whether the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, BVAS, machines could read the Voter’s Identification Number on Temporary Voters Card, TVCs.
Michael Okejimi of Messrs. Micheal Okejimi and Co. Law Empire made the call following a judgment of a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja which held that “A declaration is made by this court that the (2) plaintiffs, having fulfilled all necessary legal requirements to register and having consequently been captured in the defendant’s (INEC’s) central database and manual, printed paper-based record or hard copy format of the defendant’s maintained Register of Voters, the plaintiffs are entitled to vote using their Temporary Voter Cards in the forthcoming 2023 General Election.”
