The Independent National Electoral Commission‘s inability to post the election results on the INEC Result Viewing Portal, according to the Supreme Court, did not influence the result of the presidential contest.
“The results collation does not stop when IReV fails,” stated Okoro, reading the lead judgment.
People are prevented from examining the outcomes. The voters’ confidence in the election will be impacted by the malfunction.
“Unavailability of IReV cannot be a ground for the election to be nullified.
“The failure did not affect the outcome of the election. The issue is resolved against the appellants. “
