Truth be told, the 2021 governorship acclamation in Anambra Accompaniment has auspiciously appear and gone. However, there are some inherent acquaint to be learnt from the angle of the Independent Civic Balloter Commission.

Before the acclamation captivated on November 6, abounding had doubted that it would hold, let abandoned affably like it angry out to be. Succinctly put, not a few feared that the governorship poll would end in a stillbirth that could necessitate the acknowledgment of a accompaniment of emergency in the state. The common sit-at-home protests declared by the banned Indigenous Peoples of Biafra and empiric religiously by association of the South-East circuitous the alarm that trailed the poll.

The apparent abhorrence and astriction allegedly brought about the calamity of the accompaniment with about 34,000 badge cadre and array of added aegis operatives, including soldiers. Some bodies claimed they saw war planes and added adult armoury deployed for the governorship poll, a development that added the akin of abhorrence amid stakeholders, including political parties.

The accompaniment of diplomacy in the Accompaniment afore the acclamation was anxious and this fabricated abounding to articulation out their fear. The Accepted Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Okoli Akirika, bidding anguish over the abolition of lives and property, alike as he alleged for the alive of the election.

Akirika had said few canicule afore the governorship poll, “If the government cannot agreement aegis in Anambra State, it is bigger for them to err on the ancillary of attention by authoritative abiding that the aegis bearings in the accompaniment is adequate afore bodies can allocution of any added adventure or action or event.

“Elections are for the living; the asleep has annihilation to do with election. It does not amount if you are a governorship applicant or a affair administrator or a aborigine or a stakeholder, journalist, priest or a administrator general. The accuracy is that in a ambience of insecurity, there is about little or annihilation you can do.

“People cannot alike abrasion simple T-shirt (with an adumbration of a political party). Alike cutting a fez cap abode a political party’s logo is a problem. That is to appearance you how austere the amount is. The affair of crisis charge be addressed.”

However, the aegis aspect of the acclamation seemed to accept been apparent with a circadian appearance of force by heavily armed aegis agents in above towns in the state, admission to the poll; appropriately the focus confused to the Independent Civic Balloter Agency on how it would conduct the election.

One cannot calmly balloon that some months to the poll, the INEC accompaniment abode was attacked and set afire by hoodlums, necessitating a lot of repairs, refurnishing and backup of some non-sensitive abstracts for the poll.

At a stage, INEC said it would accompany bottomward such non-sensitive abstracts from its abundance in Owerri, Imo State, for the Anambra poll. The development did not go bottomward able-bodied with politicians and stakeholders in Anambra. For them, that was the aboriginal footfall to rig the poll because the Imo Accompaniment Governor, Hope Uzodimma, had beforehand threatened to “grab” the governorship bench of Anambra.

On the day of election, there were hitches and glitches, alignment from backward accession of acclamation abstracts and adulterated of the anew alien Bimodal Aborigine Accreditation Arrangement amid others.

On the day of election, the governorship applicant of the All Progressives Grand Alliance in the poll, Prof Chukwuma Soludo; his analogue in the PDP, Mr. Valentine Ozigbo; the  governorship applicant of Zenith Labour Affair , Dr Obiora Okonkwo and the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, had to beef the boundless glitches that characterised the acclamation beyond the state.

For bristles hours, Soludo could not vote in his Isuofia breadth in the Aguata Local Government Breadth of the accompaniment while Ngige collection out of the voting centre in Alor, Idemili South Local Government Breadth afterwards aggressive with the BVAS for over two hours afterwards luck.

Soludo, who voted afterwards in the black that day noted, “In my stronghold, the affair (BVAS) seems to accept arranged up actually as it were but again, as I said in the morning, I am a die-hard optimist and I appetite to accept that the arrangement will deliver.

“If they are extending that (election) till tomorrow, I am abiding these bodies will be aback actuality to vote; whenever they extend it to, these bodies will be aback actuality because they appetite to vote and we appetite technology that enables all the acceptable voters to vote. I appetite to be governor, but I appetite to be adopted accurately with the votes of the people.

“Even if you put electricity here, at the amount at which the apparatus is going, maybe one actuality per hour will be able to vote. I am not abiding we will alike accomplishment by tomorrow. It is absolutely concerning, absolutely frankly, and what is accident in my polling berth actuality seems to represent abundantly the basin of the letters that I accept got about the state. A few places, I understand, they said formed almost able-bodied but in a all-inclusive majority of the places about the state, it aloof has not formed well. These aged bodies accept been actuality back morning and they cannot get to vote. Several accept left.”

Ngige, on his allotment said, “I accept been actuality for over an hour afterwards success. I’m not impressed. The INEC would accept put the BVAS apparatus to a apish acclamation in addition accompaniment afore bringing it to Anambra to ensure that it works efficiently. I additionally advance that the machines should not be dumped afterwards this election, abroad by 2023 back we go for the accepted election, it would still be the aforementioned case.”

For the governorship applicant of Zenith Labour Party, Obiora Okonkwo, poor activity of the machines and backward admission of acclamation abnormally afflicted the process. Okonkwo, who voted at his polling unit, Ogidi Town Hall, Polling Assemblage 009, Ogidi Breadth 2, said abounding voters were blank due to the poor activity of the machines.

A affiliate apery Anaocha/Njikoka/Dunukofia in the Federal House of Representatives, Dozie Nwankwo, accused INEC of what he termed analytical rigging, afterward the antecedent abortion of the BVAS machines at his ward, Enuagu Enugwu Ukwu Breadth One, Units 003 and 004. The breadth had two polling centres and 1,466 registered voters but alone 23 voters could vote as of apex on the day of election.

Reacting to the frustration, a civilian association group, the International Association for Civilian Liberties and Rule of Law, said the bearings blank over 70 per cent of the voters who came out to vote.

The group’s Board of Trustees Chairman, Emeka Umeagbalasi, said, “We accept aggregate from many, if not best of the polling booths in the accompaniment and beyond the state’s three aldermanic districts, 326 wards and 5,720 polling centres, that abortion of the BVAS machines is boundless and has affected over 70 per cent of the voters not to be captured; thereby rubbishing the acceptance and believability of the absolute exercise and paving the way for the continued rumoured accouterment and alertness of the arena for acknowledgment and artifice of an abhorred and unacceptable applicant as the Anambra governor-elect.”

The INEC Resident Balloter Commissioner in the state, Dr Nkwachukwu Orji, in a acknowledgment said, “The agency is investigating the acumen the accreditation devices, Bimodal Aborigine Accreditation Arrangement accept formed altogether in some polling units, but not in others. In some of the cases, it would assume that this resulted from software glitches. Our technicians accept already congenital an amend to the accessory software to anticipate added challenges.”

Orji said the agency faced busline challenges in some locations during the poll.

“It charge be acclaimed that on annual of aegis concerns, some of the transporters that were mobilised and calm 50 per cent of their sign-on fee backed out at the aftermost moment, abrogation some of our ad-hoc agents stranded. Also, some of the accomplished ad-hoc agents backed out at the aftermost moment.” Orji said.

Aside from adulterated of BVAS, there were abandoned cases of abandon breadth hoodlums took abroad acclamation boxes from polling centres. Such happened at the Immaculate Heart Catholic Church and the St. Faith Catholic Church in Fegge, Onitsha. The miscreants, calculation about six, stormed the St. Faith Catholic Church by Mbonu Ejike/Basden Junction in an bare L300 bus. They attempt indiscriminately to alarm the voters and aegis operatives.

Another set of gunmen stormed the polling assemblage at the Immaculate Heart Church forth Zik’s Avenue, additionally in Onitsha, abduction a acclamation box. The balloter agency had to append the governorship acclamation in Ihiala Local Government Breadth of the accompaniment afterward the beginning of abandon in assorted polling units in the area.

Hoodlums reportedly disrupted the acclamation and claimed they were administration the sit-at-home acclimation beforehand imposed by the banned Indigenous Bodies of Biafra admitting the abandoning of the charge by IPOB two canicule to the election.

The PDP applicant in the poll, Valentine Ozigbo, declared the Anambra poll as a bomb on the allotment of INEC and aegis operatives.

He said, “That acclamation was abounding with a lot of shortcomings on the allotment of assorted government institutions. The aegis agencies bootless to accommodate a peaceful ambiance for campaigns to hold. On acclamation day, they were absent from abounding polling centres, arch to elections not captivation or captivated in situations that accustomed for anarchy and fraud.

“The civic balloter agency presented green and ailing accomplished agents who could not accomplish the voting machines in abounding places. They bootless woefully in accouterment logistical abutment for their staff; so, elections started actual backward in abounding places and did not authority in abounding others. The use of government funds and assets to corrupt, coerce, and alarm voters, PDP agents, and balloter admiral was a above agency in chargeless the aftereffect of this election.

“All of these led to the disenfranchisement of the greater allotment of voters and staining the advance of democracy. I will be dedicating time to best the absolute change we charge to ensure that approaching elections are absolutely chargeless and fair and that the will of the electorate prevails.”

However, in a post-election comment, Soludo, who emerged the champ in the governorship poll, bidding optimism that the balloter arrangement would improve. “We charge decidedly acclaim the chairman, administration and agents of INEC for systematically appetite to bestow a bequest of free, fair and cellophane balloter arrangement to Nigeria. The use of Bimodal Aborigine Accreditation Arrangement represents a massive advance over the Card Reader and chiral accreditation system.

“With a connected clarification of the technology, upscaling of the abilities of its operators, accord with telecommunication companies, advance in logistical deployment and security, and acrimonious abuse for anyone complex in balloter malpractice, Nigeria will be on advance to a able-bodied and admirable balloter system.

“Aside from the antecedent glitches in the operations of the BVAS machines in some places, including at my polling unit, the acclamation has been adjudged as the best peaceful, free, fair and credible. There is joy in the land. Kudos to INEC,” Soludo stated

An acclamation eyewitness group, Yiaga Africa, said it deployed 500 anchored assemblage during the poll, application a adumbrative statistical sample of 248 polling units and 27 adaptable assemblage in all 21 LGAs of Anambra State. “Despite the enactment of Super Registration Breadth Centres abutting to the polling units to avoid logistical hiccups, backward deployment of acclamation abstracts and cadre delayed the aperture of polling units,” it said.

Yiaga, in a account by its Executive Director, Samson Itodo, said, “As of 7:30 am, polling admiral were present in alone 17 per cent of polling units. By 9:30 am, alone 27 per cent of polling units commenced accreditation and voting. By 10:30 am, alone 48 per cent of the polling units had commenced accreditation and voting. This, however, added by apex as accreditation and voting were appear in 78 per cent of the polling units. However, 21 per cent of the polling units were still not opened by noon. Based on absolute letters from Yiaga Africa observers, 21 per cent of polling units bootless to accessible by noon.

“Yiaga Africa commends INEC for deploying the aperture for the acclamation and added recommends that INEC reviews the aperture to accomplish the interface convenient and accommodate balloter after-effects abstracts in a accessible architecture to facilitate citizens’ ecology of the advertisement of acclamation results.”

Another group; the International Association for Social Justice and Human Rights apprenticed INEC to see the Anambra acclamation as an befalling to abode the shortcomings noticed during the poll. The Chancellor of the civilian association organisation, Jackson Omenazu, said the affair of backward accession of the commission’s ad hoc agents and acclamation abstracts charge be addressed in Osun, Ekiti and the 2023 accepted election.

He said, “We acclaim INEC for insisting the acclamation should authority and for additionally administering a acknowledged poll in Anambra. But it (INEC) charge learnt from these mistakes and ensure they are adapted in Osun, Ekiti elections abutting year and the 2023 accepted election.”

“We accept INEC will appear up with added able means of distributing balloter materials. They animate Nigerian voters by advancing up with a arrangement that will ensure that their ad hoc workers and acclamation abstracts access aboriginal at the polling units. They can use helicopters to bead acclamation materials; INEC can appoint helicopters from oil companies to ensure that the affair of backward accession of abstracts during acclamation becomes a affair of the past.

“Again, acclamation abstracts acclimated in the Anambra acclamation should not accept been kept in a neighbouring state. We accept Central Bank of Nigeria annex in every accompaniment that can accumulate such abstracts until they are needed. In Osun, Ekiti and added elections in 2023, we appetite to see an bigger INEC because time is consistently of aspect abnormally during election.”

Speaking on the aloof assured Anambra election, INEC explained that admitting the exercise was arduous attributable to some issues, including aegis challenge, it conducted a acknowledged governorship poll. Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi, the Chief Press Secretary to the Commission’s Chairman, however, added that INEC would delay for the address of the poll and accomplish acclimation for approaching elections.

He said, “The Anambra Accompaniment governorship acclamation was absolutely arduous for the Independent Civic Balloter Agency because of a countless of issues. That notwithstanding, we conducted the acclamation successfully. We are still assured abundant letters of what transpired on acclamation day from all our acreage admiral deployed for the exercise and it is alone afterwards that, that we will accept a abounding account of what took abode in all-embracing terms.

“However, abhorrence of crisis was understandably a above affair for us. For instance, some of the transporters who had agreed to accommodate a assertive cardinal of cartage to back our admiral and acclamation materials/equipment withdrew at the aftermost minute on the morning of the acclamation day because they feared accessible attacks/reprisals during or afterwards the election. The agency will analysis the letters actuality accepted from our acreage admiral and acclimatize appropriately for approaching balloter activities.”
