INEC promises e-transmission of results in Bayelsa, Imo, Kogi governorship elections

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) will transmit the results of the November 11 governorship elections in Bayelsa, Imo, and Kogi States electronically.

The Bayelsa State Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Ofiong Efanga, had earlier said the commission would adopt a manual mode of result transmission for the election.

However, in what seems to be a turnaround, the INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, told journalists during Saturday’s mock election in Kogi State said the commission would transmit the election results electronically.
