The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Ekiti State, Dr Wole Oluyede, has criticised the performance of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), saying technical glitches delayed his accreditation during Saturday’s voting exercise.
Oluyede, who voted at Unit 6, Ward 3, Osagburu Family Hall, said the BVAS device deployed at his polling unit was malfunctioning, resulting in a slow and disrupted accreditation process.
According to reports, voting commenced at about 8:30 a.m., but only six voters had been accredited several hours into the process due to the faulty machine.
Electoral officials were reportedly seen making efforts to resolve the technical issues in order to restore normal voting operations.
Reacting to the situation, the PDP candidate expressed strong dissatisfaction with the conduct of the election, describing the process as unacceptable.
“The electoral process is nonsense. A lot of my people are yet to vote because the BVAS is not functioning
