Rufai Oseni, a co-host of Arise Television Morning Show, has question the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC over the causes of the technical glitch that occurred during the 2023 general election.

His comment comes after the INEC National Commissioner, Festus Okoye urged Nigerians not to judge the commission as a result of the challenge the commission experienced in the upload of the presidential election.

He said; “It is not fair to judge the entire performance of the commission on the basis of a glitch in the result upload for the presidential election."

Festus Okoye was responding to comments made by the EU chief Observer, Barry Andrews that the public confidence in INEC was severely damaged in the February 25 election due to the commission's operational failures and lack of transparency.

The European Union Election Observation Mission on Monday, June 26, submitted the final report of the 2023 general election. In the report, it was stated that
the lack of trust led the civil societies to call for an independent audit of the entire process.

While reacting to the development, Rufai Oseni took to his Twitter page to ask what caused the technical glitch at the election.

He tweeted; "What’s caused the technical glitch on Election Day?"
