INEC Uploads 34.6% of Ekiti Election Results to IReV Portal

Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has commenced the process of uploading results from the Ekiti State governorship election to its dedicated Result Viewing Portal (IReV). The upload began following the conclusion of voting, ballot sorting, and counting across polling units in the state on Saturday.

By 6 p.m. on Saturday, INEC had successfully uploaded 846 polling unit results. This figure represents 34.60 percent of the anticipated total of 2,445 results. The IReV portal, designed for public access to real-time, polling unit-level results, has shown a steady increase in uploaded data as the collation process advances.

Initial data indicates that several wards within the Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government Area have started seeing uploads, with varying completion rates at the polling unit level. Iyin I Ward has recorded the highest number of uploads so far, with nine out of 23 polling units posted. Igbemo Ward follows closely, also with nine out of 21 polling unit results uploaded.

Other wards with partial uploads include Are Ward 02 (four of 10 units), Igede II (four of 15), Igede III (one of 11), Afao (three of eight), Igede I (five of 15), Iworoko (three of 22), Iropora/Esure/Eyio (one of 16), Awo (three of 12), and Iyin II (six of 21). INEC is expected to upload more results as collation continues across the local government areas, with the total percentage anticipated to rise significantly in the coming hours.
