APC is trying by all means to force themselves on Nigerian again in 2027. They should allow the people to vote who they want if they truly good to Nigerian. Why are they afraid .
The guest is not putting forward a coherent argument. On the one hand, he acknowledges that there is no network coverage in about 7% of the 177,000 polling stations. Yet he then goes on to advocate for mandatory, real‑time transmission of results from every location. In effect, he is endorsing a position that would inevitably disenfranchise voters in rural communities who lack reliable connectivity.
Saving polling‑unit results to the BVAS device and then transmitting them once the presiding officer reaches an area with network coverage is entirely realistic. In fact, this is precisely how BVAS is designed to function: it stores results locally and uploads them whenever a stable connection becomes available.
However, this is not what the most vocal opponents of the electoral bill are demanding. Their position centres on real‑time, compulsory, nationwide electronic transmission of results from every polling unit, irrespective of connectivity constraints. That expectation is simply incompatible with the current state of Nigeria’s mobile network infrastructure, particularly in rural and underserved areas where 2G coverage remains common.
That said, I acknowledge that some politicians may have ulterior motives for resisting real‑time transmission of results. But the opponents of the bill must also recognise that the Nigerian legislature cannot legislate away the limitations imposed by physics and infrastructure. Any reform must be grounded in what is technically feasible today, not in what is politically fashionable.
Is this one from Malema party in South Africa or what manner of dressing is this?
