E- transmission of election results: Senate back-pedals, passes bill

“Distinguished colleagues, the social media is already awash with reports that the Senate has literally rejected electronic transmission of results. That is not true. What we did was to retain the electronic transmission, which has been in the Act and was used in 2022. “So please, do not allow people to confuse you. If you are in doubt, we will make our final votes and proceedings available to you if you apply. "This Senate under my watch has not rejected the electronic transmission of results. It is in my interest as a participant in the next election for such to be done. So please don’t go with the crowd. “We have retained what was in the previous provision by way of amendment. That was all we did. The previous has made allowance for electronic transmission. So it is still there as part of our law. We cannot afford to go backwards,” Akpabio said.
