INEC has filed a suit at the Presidential Election Petition Court, seeking permission to allow its officials to reconfigure the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) devices ahead of the March 11 governorship and state assembly elections.
The suit, dated March 4, was filed against an earlier order of the Presidential Election Tribunal, which gave the Labour party and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the leverage to inspect election materials following allegations of widespread electoral malpractice committed against their candidates.
