VOTING PROCEDURE
THREAD
Join the queue at the Polling Unit and wait in line for the INEC official (APOIII) at the Polling Unit who tells you if you are at the correct Polling Unit and matches your face with your PVC photo. If satisfied, he/she will direct you to the next INEC Official (APOI).
Official (APOI) will check your PVC to confirm that your card is genuine, with a Smart Card Reader (SCR). You'd be asked to place your finger on the card reader to confirm that the PVC belongs to you...
You will then meet the next Official (APOII) who will request for your PVC to confirm that your name and details are in the Voters Register. Your name will be ticked and your PVC returned to you...
The Presiding Officer (PO) will then stamp, sign and endorse the date at the back of the Ballot Paper. The PO will roll the ballot paper with the printed side inwards and give it to you. He /she will then direct you to the voting cubicle where you vote in secret.
You will stain your appropriate finger for the election with the ink provided then use your stained finger to mark the space or box provided on the ballot paper for your preferred candidate/party. Roll the marked ballot paper (in the manner the PO gave to you).
Then leave the voting cubicle and drop the ballot paper in the ballot box in full view of people at the Polling Unit.
You will then leave the Polling Unit or wait if you so choose, in an orderly and peaceful manner, to watch the process up to declaration of result.
