Why human interference is behind INEC’s server crash

The several cases of glitches on the server of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that affected the electoral process during the February 25 polls were mainly a result of human interference, BusinessDay can report.

The electoral umpire would on Saturday make available the same server for the upload of the results of the governorship and House of Assembly elections. Festus Okoye, national commissioner on voter education at INEC, said in a statement that the commission was aware the INEC Result Viewing (IReV) portal had been slow and unsteady, however, its technical team was working to solve all the outstanding problems.
