The 2019 Presidential election will be independently monitored in the way that will make it difficult for rigging to be carried out by the electoral body.
According to the Parallel Vote Tabulation methodology developed by YIAGA AFRICA, this is aimed at improving the sanctity of the electoral process using data and statistical analyses.
The PVT was developed in 1986 in Philippines and has been used in 52 countries.
YIAGA intends to deploy the PVT methodology and 3, 906 election observers to polling units in all 774 local government areas across the country.
The initiative, according to YIAGA AFRICA is to give Nigerians accurate alternative election results with empirical data.
