Nigeria's opposition All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCPCO), today charged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), to work towards the integrity of the incoming general elections through utilisation of the card reader machine to authenticate voter’s card.
The campaign organisation in a statement signed by the
Director of Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu posited that the decision by INEC to use card-readers is consequent upon the need to guarantee electoral transparency and integrity.
According to him, "We insist on the use of Card Readers for authenticating the propriety of the Permanent Voter Cards.
"These, in our estimation as a credible party, remain the irreducible minimum that must form the basis for the conduct of free, fair, and credible elections on March 28 and April 11.
"Aside the huge financial investment involved in the procurement of the Card Readers, the desire to hoodwink the Nigerian people on this anti-rigging device, is not just subterranean but an affront on the independence of the electoral body."
