The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has once again been found wanting, all thanks to the BIVAS machine.
The BIVAS machine provided by INEC for the Edo State governorship election left voters stranded in Ward 7, Unit 39.

The polling unit official confirmed that a new machine will brought for the election, expressing hope that the voting time will be extended.
Friday Aiwekhoe, a voter, said it was appalling that the BIVAS machine would fail despite the preparation the INEC put into the exercise.
He noted that the problem could be “political and a ploy to disenfranchise the people”.
