The Court of Appeal, Abuja has fixed Wednesday to consider the merit of the application the Independent National Electoral Commission filed to be allowed to reconfigure the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, used for the just concluded presidential election.

After the three-man panel of the court had listened to the parties, Justice Joseph High adjourned ruling on the matter till Wednesday.

Obi and LP, through their team of lawyers led by Onyechi Ikpeazu, SAN, said the essence of the application was to enable them to extract data embedded in the BVAS, “which represent the actual results from Polling Units.”“My lords, this is to ensure that the evidence is preserved before the BVAS are reconfigured by INEC. This is because if they are wiped out, it will affect the substance of the case,” Ikpeazu, SAN, added.

However, INEC, through its team of lawyers comprising four Senior Advocates of Nigeria, SAN led by Mr Tanimu Inuwa, urged the court to refuse the application.

Do not tamper with the data in BVAS, please

Prior to now Inec said the commission was ready all of a sudden a configuration is needed.. Liars they are trying to erase evidences which is a crime on its own

Why is the INEC in a hurry to continue elections when the one they did remain inconclusive? Something fishy!

Is it possible to televise the court proceedings... Because this will make for great tv rating.

It is only Lp and OBi that is fighting through the legal means to reclaim his mandate but Atiku is leading protest against inec irregularities but not that he won the election.

Is real rigging by inec.we can never ever trust inec again.
