Nigerians have expressed outrage over the state of the card readers as they troop out to get accredited in readiness for today's election.
The popular complaint is that the Card readers are failing to verify their finger prints, and in what is considered an embarrassing situation of epic proportions, President Goodluck Jonathan himself was captured on TV, sweating as he stood with a flummoxed INEC official who fumbled with the card reader as it continued to reject the President's finger prints.
That situation has now been cleared up, however, as the president has been accredited.
Social media is filled with the outrage of Nigerian who demand to know why accreditation is being 'unnecessarily difficult' and they are blaming the INEC chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega. Some citizens have accused the chairman of not properly testing the card reader technology before the election day.
