The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council (APC/PCC) has developed applications to attract 80 million voters towards Bola Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 poll.

Abiola Oshodi, the media director of the Tinubu/Shettima Grassroots Independent Campaign Council in Ondo, made this revelation on Monday.

He said over the telephone that the applications would capture the database of the electorate for election mobilisation and canvassing through the state, local government, wards and polling units.

According to him, the applications will ensure over 80 million voters in Nigeria vote for APC and smoothen political engagements by sensitising and creatively engaging them on the platforms.

“This will enhance the mobilisation of voters and canvassing of undecided voters before the election and will bring real-time information to supporters of the presidential candidate without broken messages and in real-time.

“They allow for unit-to-unit canvassing and mobilisation and will promote the presidential candidate and educate voters on his antecedents,” he stated.

The APC/PCC member said the applications were developed locally by youths towards a better Nigeria.

Mr Oshodi described the 2022 Electoral law as a game changer, saying it would address many forms of electoral malpractices and other electoral shenanigans that had characterised the electoral process in the past.

“Electoral malpractices will be minimised by the new Electoral Act and thus the need to scale up our activities and preparation towards the 2023 national election by embracing and leveraging technology and electoral transparency, which are the intents and purposes of the new 2022 Electoral Act.

“BVAS will ensure that the majority of votes will count, and where there are issues, the electoral audit will easily identify most electoral malpractices,” he said.
