The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has announced mandatory video documentation of the ongoing party primary elections in Anambra to ensure transparency.

This is contained in a public announcement signed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Ejimofor Opara, on Saturday in Awka.

Mr Opara directed all electoral officers, assistant electoral officers, aspirants, party officials and members participating in the primaries to strictly comply with the guidelines.

He said the measures were aimed at ensuring transparency, accountability and credibility in the conduct of the exercise.

“The submission of comprehensive video evidence from the wards will serve as a mandatory condition for the acceptance and validation of election results.

“The video recordings must clearly capture the accreditation of eligible party members and delegates, queue formation during voting, counting of votes with figures visibly displayed and audibly announced.

“They must also show the announcement of results by the electoral officer, as well as the recording of final results in prescribed forms and other electoral documents,” he said.

Mr Opara warned that any result not accompanied by the required video documentation would neither be accepted nor validated by the party.

He further clarified the responsibilities of electoral officials.

He also encouraged aspirants to independently record the electoral process for transparency and personal documentation.
