So the only way to detect that BVAS have been bypassed is for us to see the uploaded results. And then INEC chairman has repeatedly told Nigerians that there will be transmission of a lot of results from polling units directly to the server. Addressing journalists after their meeting, Melaye stated: “A few minutes ago, we raised the issue of the fact that in accordance with the provision of the Electoral Act, Section 60 and Section 64 of the Electoral Act 2022 (as amended), that there will be transmission of results from the polling units. We are not here to rubber stamp the abnormalities that have been done. “We find out that this has not been done. Yakubu stated: “I still insist that the figure presented by the state collection officer for the presidential election for Ekiti state, the total number of accredited voters is 315,058. He said: “I think the law is clear that when a result has been declared, we should resort to petition, if need be. If you subtract that from the balance of 100,064, what is left is 10,510 and now it was also recorded that the Labour Party had 12,397 when the total left is 10,510. There was over voting and the number of votes outnumber the number of accredited votes and we know exactly what the law says concerning that. We will like the commission to look at it and the Ekiti state result should be cancelled for over voting based on our calculation. But what we have here is exactly what I’ve said. If you subtract that from 301,558, what you have left is 100,064.
