After extensive analysis, News Band has discovered and hereby reveals a gamut of errors, alterations, and inconsistencies perpetrated by Nigeria’s Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the results of the 2023 presidential election held on February 25, 2023, and even on its website.

In the following analysis, it was discovered that form EC8A were not available in several polling units in some states, while in others, in polling units where form EC8A were available, the uploaded results did not match the named polling units.

In other instances, most registrations (figures) recorded in INEC website are different from the figures recorded in form EC8A.

Also, election results collated via INEC Results Viewing (IREV) portal, with the exception of blurred uploads and altered results, are totally different from the results declared by INEC.

See below the state by state summary of the election results from IREV and the results declared by INEC:
