NDC not planning parallel result collation system – Chieftain

Victor Umeh, a chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, has stated that the party does not intend to create a parallel result collation system for the 2027 general elections. Instead, the NDC will send agents to polling units to collate results as they are declared and transmit them to the party’s situation room for independent collation.

Umeh clarified that the arrangement should not be viewed as a parallel system, as party agents would only transmit results after they have been collated, declared, and recorded on the prescribed result forms. Umeh also stated that the party's agents would be stationed at polling units to relay results to the situation room once they were collated, declared, and recorded on the prescribed forms.

He emphasized that the party would send poll unit results to their situation room, asserting that INEC does not have a monopoly over data collation.
