E shock you!

Punch news has reported that president Jonathan is surprised that politicians are refusing the use of electronic voting! Like it’s shocking to us too sir.

Former President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday supported the calls for electronic voting in the country.

According to him, the system would not only ensure the independence of the Independent National Electoral Commission but also make elections in the country credible.

He stressed that he finds it difficult to believe the opposition that has greeted the use of the electronic voting despite the advancement technology has brought.

Jonathan spoke while delivering a lecture on Wednesday at the inauguration ceremony/lecture of the National Defence College,  Course 30, in Abuja.

He said, ”There is no doubt that the independence of the electoral management body is the key plank upon which a thriving democracy rests.

“In Nigeria, the agency with the constitutional responsibility for this role is the Independent National Electoral Commission.

“There is the need for those involved in the ongoing electoral reforms to review their efforts and ask themselves some tough questions.
