To achieve this, at least one electorate from all 176,846 polling units across the federation is required to pre-register on the platform before Saturday and upload election results at their polling unit in real time. This will serve as a source of reference for evidence against result tampering.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the launch, Oo Nwoye states: \u201cWhile party agents contested election results during INEC result announcements, nobody really had real time evidence to present. There was nowhere visible that the results were all aggregated. So it became difficult to prove.<\/p>\n<p>He adds: \u201cThough a lot of people have introduced structured solutions like forms to crowdsource results, these solutions are not entirely designed to capture all the polling units and offer real time results as they are dependent on voters sporadically finding out about those forms on election day which may be too late.<\/p>\n<p>So, from my product knowledge, I thought it would be good to know in advance polling units without coverage and plan for coverage. With voters pre-registering and indicating their polling units, we can identify the PUs that risk not having results posted on Collate and push to get voters from those PUs to register on the site before the gubernatorial election. What\u2019s key in this product is the ability to plan ahead.\u201d<\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p>Nwoye, Omosigho and the team have been working hard to develop the platform, which they anticipate will be a necessary game-changer for the coming elections.

Now any candidate from any political party will have access to clear evidence of images taken at the polling units, completely independent of INEC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To safeguard the integrity of the election,\u00a0Collate\u00a0ensures that voters who submit results to their platform will be protected, and no personally identifiable information will be disclosed to the public.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tech executives Oo Nwoye, and Ozo Omosigho are pleased to announce the launch of Collate, an open and crowd sourced online result collation and viewing platform (ReV) built to aid transparency in the coming gubernatorial elections in Nigeria.<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":30422,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,624],"tags":[10225],"coauthors":[2391],"class_list":["post-70100","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-news","category-politics","tag-gubernatorial-elections"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.9 -
