Senators Reverse Stance: Demand Mandatory E-Transmission After Losing APC Tickets

Nigerian senators are now pushing for compulsory electronic transmission of polling unit results to the INEC server. A few months ago, these same lawmakers insisted that e-transmission was optional. This turnaround came after the APC primaries, where many senators failed to secure party tickets. They realised the very system they championed could be used to sideline them. Once their political survival was at stake, transparency suddenly became appealing. By insisting on a loophole-free e-transmission process, they aim to curb backdoor manipulations. Politics has a strange way of teaching the value of fairness.
