INEC Chairman Mahmood Yakubu, Told Me That They Were Dumbfounded As Why The Presidential Election Result Wasn’t Uploading In Time -Yabagi

Yabagi Sani, the chairman of Inter-party Advisory Council has spoken about why the results of the presidential election were not uploaded to INEC Result Viewing Portal in real-time.

About 20:30 minutes into a video shared on YouTube by AIT News, Sani who was the candidate of Action Democratic Party in the presidential election said he confronted INEC’s chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu to know why there was a delay in uploading the results and Yakubu honestly told him that he also didn’t know why. He said Yakubu however assured him that the INEC server was not hacked into.

In Sani’s words: “I confronted INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu: I said why are we where we are and in addition to that I am sure your system was hacked. He said no, it wasn’t hacked. He said at that point in time he didn’t know what happened, that they themselves were dumbfounded and they were running helter-skelter when the transmission of the result of the presidential election could not take place; they didn’t know what happened. So you could see that he was really honest at that point in time”.
