facts have emerged about the failure of the Independent National Electoral Commission to upload the results of the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections on its portal.However, desperate efforts to address the glitch by INEC’s team of Information Technology experts failed.
Sunday PUNCH reports that a day after the election, INEC uploaded 41,649 polling results or less than 30 per cent of the results to its viewing portal. Following the declaration of the All Progressives Congress flag bearer, Bola Tinubu, as the President-elect, the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, rejected the result and vowed to challenge it in court.
Speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue, the source said, “The technical glitch that hampered the transmission of the presidential result was a code error that kept crashing the server, which kept prompting a HTTP 500 error. This sort of error originated from within the application.”
