A Call to Service – Text of an Address by Chief Hon. (Barr.) Cyriacus Sunday Umeha – Member-Elect Ezeagu/Udi Federal Constituency, Enugu State.

🧵 #Thread
My good people of Ezeagu/Udi Federal Constituency; on Wednesday 8th March 2023, I officially received the Certificate of Return as Member-Elect to represent our Constituency in what would be the 10th National Assembly.
It was the culmination of the popular mandate you bestowed on me, on the 25th of February 2023 when you trooped out en masse to vote for me, and our great party - #LabourParty and in the process demonstrated your belief in our Legislative Agenda...

1. Understandably, a lot of media attention was focused on two main aspects of @YIAGA’s report on #NigeriaDecides2023 (that can - and should - be read here: yiaga.org/yiaga-africa-p……)

3. @YIAGA could make that assertion because it had observers in all 774 Local Government Areas and used PVT which allows it to project the results to be expected.
(I hope no one is surprised that it was Imo and Rivers? Let's see if INEC upholds or corrects those results.)

This is a huge leap, but does anyone out there have the name of a company that manufactures the BiModal Voter Accreditation System #BVAS that #INEC uses for #IReV in #Nigeria elections? All I've found is "tech startups" helped modernize

for those extremely confused, Nigeria used a new vote reporting system and had bad reporting delays. Not the main point of my piece but weird I can't find a manufacturer for the biometric system, governments rarely make such things in house. It should be a contractor.
for the record, I have no reason to think anything nefarious went on, it's just strange I can't find the name of the contractor, and will otherwise be publishing that I couldn't discover who made them [its only a minor component of my story]
