#NigeriaDecides: INEC Yet To Upload Abuja Senatorial Results 18hrs After Voting

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is yet to upload a single result from Saturday’s presidential and senatorial election in the Federal Capital Territory to its INEC Result Viewing Portal (IReV).

Despite concluding the elections for various part of the city since yesterday, checks show the electoral body is yet upload to the portal which is meant to “aid election transparency” of polls for six Local Government Areas known  in the FCT.

According to data released by INEC before the election, the FCT has a total of 1,570,307 registered voters and 1,476,451 total number of collected collected voter cards (PVCs), representing a 94.0% PVC collection rate.

Meanwhile, some angry voters in the Kubwa area of the FCT had prevented ad-hoc officials of INEC from leaving their unit over failure to upload results of the presidential and national assembly elections to the commission’s portal.

The electoral officers had blamed Server downtime for their inability to upload the results.

A similar situation was reportedly recorded in several other polling units in the federal capital and states of the federation.
