CivicHive collated and analysed the Governorship Election result in Edo State from the IREV platform and these are some of the anomalies and shocking things we uncovered.

As at the time of this report, the total number of uploads on IREV is 4466 out of 4519, which is about 98.8% of the total results expected to be on the platform. Out of the 18 LGAs, only 5 LGAs have complete results fully uploaded.

In our analysis, we uncovered widespread flagrant anomalies by INEC officials in the conduct of the election, we discovered a number of over-voting particularly in Etsako East and other LGAs.

Our team also uncovered incongruencies in results announced by INEC and what was updated and collated on IREV.

For an in-depth analysis of the whole election result, we have submitted an FOI letter to INEC to request copies of Form EC 8A-Es used in the election.

Our aim is to promote citizen participation in democracy, trust and transparency in electoral processes and democratic transition.
