2021 : INEC works towards electronic voting
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it will “work towards the full introduction of electronic voting in major elections starting from 2021.”
Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation and largest economy, still votes and collates manually, even though registration for voting has been digitized.
However, human interference in a chunk of the balloting process has led to results being contested in courtrooms following allegations of widespread rigging.
In a policy document, INEC boss Mahmood Yakubu, wrote that the electoral umpire will trial the use of e-voting machines at the earliest possible time, after the forthcoming Edo and Ondo governorship elections, but will also “work towards the full introduction of electronic voting in major elections starting from 2021.”
