Osun election: IReV just viewing centre, not adding machine – INEC

Ajayi assured Nigerians that all results from the Osun State governorship election would be uploaded to the IReV portal, adding that the commission would improve its performance in transmitting results.

“All the results will go on IReV, I can assure you of that. What is going to be different is that we are going to perform better. That is immediately the results are ready, they will capture them and send them to the IReV through the same BVAS.

“The IReV is a viewing centre. There’s a misinformation when it comes to the function of the IReV. The IReV is not an adding machine. It’s not an adding system because some people are expecting that immediately results are coming in, they’ll be adding like that; at the end of the day, there will be a gross trader,” Ajayi said.

He said individuals, groups and institutions could independently collate the results displayed on IReV by adding the figures from polling units.

“But what is important is that the results transmitted to the IReV, are they different from what came up from the PU?” he asked.
