The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Saturday conducted a mock accreditation exercise ahead of the Aug. 15 Osun governorship election.
The INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, who monitored the exercise, expressed satisfaction with the performance of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS).
“So far, I have visited four polling units. My assessment is that we are satisfied that the BVAS is working perfectly ahead of the election.
“This is a mock accreditation, and its purpose is to ensure that our tools, particularly the BVAS, function effectively on election day.
“From what I have seen, I am pleased that the machines are working,” he said.
