POLITICS: PDP Rejects Use Of Card Readers For Elections

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), yesterday, rejected the use of computerised Card Reader Machines by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), for accreditation and tracking of information on the Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).

INEC had said that the machine could help in checking rigging as it would display information on any person who has voted. But the PDP has now registered its fears that the machine may not make for credible elections as it is said to easily malfunction especially when the battery gets weak.

The party also accused INEC of engaging in a lot of manipulations that could favour the opposition, but said it was only being diplomatic so as not to be seen as opposed to the polls.

National Chairman of the party, Alhaji Adamu Muazu made these observations in Abuja, when a delegation of Africa Union election observers led by AU Commissioner for Political Affairs, Dr. Aisha Abdullahi visited the national secretariat of the PDP.

Card reader malfunction due to battery? Say it isn't so. Really, I wish the elections didn't get postponed. More ridiculous statement to come we might hear that the devil is the one conduction the polls and not INEC, or that Jega is the devil himself.
