INEC deliberately deleted results stored in BVAS machines, Atiku, PDP witness alleges
A witness of the Peoples Democratic Party and Atiku Abubakar has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of deliberately deleting results on Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) machines.
The witness, Hitler Nwala, a digital forensic analyst from Abuja, was called in by the petitioners’ lead counsel, Chris Uche, to testify against INEC, President Bola Tinubu and All Progressives Congress (APC).
During cross-examination, the witness told the court that he had prepared a forensic report of the presidential election after inspecting 110 BVAS equipment in Abuja. He claimed the BVAS machines inspected had all their results deliberately deleted.
Also, Atiku and PDP tendered a series of EC8A forms certified true copies for Ogun with 20 LGAs, Ondo with 17 LGAs, Jigawa with 27 LGA and Rivers with 20 LGAs as evidence which Justice Haruna Simon Tsammani admitted as exhibits in evidence.
