16 to some deficiencies on polling day. As at yesterday Sunday, 15th October, 2017 our two Call Centres received a total of 1086 incident reports. 784 of these incidents were NEC related while 302 were security related. ... The NEC related calls were on issues of identification of voters polling places (voters who could not identify where they [are] supposed to vote), NEC changing precinct locations, thereby confusing voters with large number of invalid votes ..., many of the polling precincts were in schools which were inaccessible to the physically challenged and the elderly, the late arrival of ballot boxes and voting materials in some" 14. It is rather strange, and unlawful that although the NEC is said to have quarantined 14 ballot boxes, meaning that the ballots of many voters have not yet been counted, the NEC has announced the final results of the Elections.

The thrust of the complaint, upon which the complainants sought effectively the nullification of the October 10, 2017 elections and upon which they prayed the NEC to conduct a re-run of the said elections, is three-fold: (a) that the electoral process and the acts of the NEC and/or its representatives violated the constitutional and statutory rights of voters and deprived them of the right to vote; (b) that there was massive fraud perpetrated by the NEC and/or its representatives in the conduct of the elections; and (c) that there were gross irregularities committed in the course of the conduct of the elections. The contentions can be summarized as follows: (a) With respect to the first contention that the electoral process and
