Sequel to my previous tweet on how to avoid over-voting/Bvas manipulation. I equally took an ample time to summarise the 26 pages of the Manipulation Risk Index (EMRI) released by @YIAGA & @EU_SDGN in the prospect of the 2023 election. PLS READ 1/5
The EMRI is an evidence-based tool designed to curb election manipulation, facilitate strategic election planning and promote citizens oversight of the electoral process. It's a guide on how we can be VIGILANT & ensure DILIGENCE of election in line with the electoral act. 2/5
2nd, it outlined 6 VARIABLES, INDICATORS, LEVEL OF IMPACT, RISK RATING OF EACH STATE and the MITIGATION MEASURES to avert the risks posed by these actor.
Take a look at how they correspond to each States below👇 3/5
Obidients must ensure to implement the EMRI strategies (esp the mitigation measures) ahead of the election in all State for coherent monitoring and to prevent any form of election manipulation. It's very critical bcos this analyis are factual!
4/5
I wish to commend the entire team of @YIAGA for this robust study on the potential risk capable of undermining our electoral integrity & for ur steadfastness in voters education.
2023 election is all abt ensuring our vote COUNT! 5/5
What Happens If The BVAS Stops Working in ur Polling Unit during the election?
According to the electoral acts, these are the likely procedures that may occur;
1) Suspension of accreditation and voting until a new BVAS is provided by INEC.
2) Upon replacement, data from the faulty BVAS will be transferred and merged with the ones on the newly provided BVAS.
3) If there is no replacement BVAS available before 2:30pm on election day, the election will be canceled and scheduled for the next day.
4) If the potential result from a cancelled polling unit due to faulty BVAS has been determined to not substantially affect the final result of the entire election process, INEC will declare a winner without conducting an election in the affected polling unit.
IMPORTANT NOTICE‼️
After careful analysis of the osun election incidence, I realised there is more to be done on voters education across the country.
Under the tweet, I'd be explaining how we can prevent osun reoccurrance in the forthcoming election. PLS READ 1/8
1st, it's pertinent we understand that voting is Manual with ballot paper while BVAS accreditation is electronic, this simply means the num of votes in the ballot must equate the num of accredited voters & the total of registered PVCs in d ward. Be sure to verify all that. 2/8
2nd, the new electoral act specifically provides that once there is over voting, the votes in that PU is null and void. Over voting occurs when the BVAS has proven that the num of votes is more than the accredited. For example, where there are 500 registered PVCs and 2/8
2/4 Frame 3: Peter Obi "Don't think my govt is going to be a party affair. We'll bring pple who're competent".
Frame 4: a product of political patronage
These are the charlatans we have in govt, pple who play Identity & transactional politics, already sharing our common wealth. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
3/3 - Those who went to school don't have jobs, those who went to "oluwole" are those in PDAPC govt, NASS, making laws for and ruling over the educated. The result is the state of Nigeria today.
Folks who're never ready to be accountable with zero character and transparency!
This has to be my favorite part of the AY Live session with Peter Obi today.
This woman here spoke the heart of millions of Nigerians. I almost teared up while listening to her. You cld feel the pains and frustration in her voice😢.
After listening to Rabiu Kwankwaso speak today at Chatham House, I became more grateful the said merger with Peter Obi never came to being.
Jst a simple question thrown at him, he diverted it into bigotry, pride, egoism, entitlement, megalomanic and utter arrogant! 1/4
This is the most disgusting way anyone can sell himself on an Intl platform.
When Peter Obi went to the Chatham house, he discusssed his plans to Nigerians, instead of Kwankwaso emulating same went there to spend the little time given to him throwing tantrums. 2/4
Is this the kind of leadership mindset Nigerians need from their leaders?
The other time he clearly stated no Notherner wld vote Peter Obi or any south-earterner. This is how they create ethnic tension & violence, causing the formation of the diff agitating grps! 😪 3/4
