The rec said the deployment of the bimodal voter accreditation system, the BEVAS, and the results view in portal the IRF for voters accreditation and uploading of polling units results in real time have come to stay. You all are aware that the security agencies met with INEC and after those attacks, the Commission in collaboration with ISIS members, the security agencies, the security have scaled up their men. In other words, we have additional men in our various offices, we are properly protected now, we are properly guided now, we are properly guided now and everywhere, every place that you see our facility, we are properly protected, particularly our local government offices. If you go there, you see policemen or you see a civil defense officer or DSS, all of them, they already manage this facility. So for us, people should not be deterred, people should not be wary, they should not be scared of all these attacks. The intention perhaps of those who are doing this is to make 2023 impossible and INEC is saying no, INEC is ready for this election and we are going to go into it, we are going to come out of it and we are going to be stronger for it, so we are ready.
