Senators are currently being called on one after the other on the floor of the Nigerian Senate to decide on electronic voting and electronic transmission of election results.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, representing Abia North has already voted against electronic voting.
Senator Kalu, in voting against electronic voting, stressed that there is no network in his village.
Meanwhile, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, representing Abia South, voted for electronic voting.
Also, Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, representing Delta Central has also voted “NO” against electronic voting.
Senators are called on to vote one by one on electronic voting and electronic transmission of election results following a rowdy session on the floor of the Senate.
The Senators disagree over Electronic Voting and an Amendment of the Electoral Act to allow the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to approve whether network is good or not first to NASS before electronic voting is deployed.
TNG reports the voting started with Senators Kalu, Abaribe and Omo-Agege.
