He said it should be based on the Residents living Voters, he added that based on this Nigeria did fantastically well with about 40 percent of the population of the residents live in Voters turning up.
He disclose that Voter turnout for the Governorship and State House of Assembly Elections will vary from State to State since it is a local Election and this will determine the turnout in each locality.
He added that those who will vote will vote not minding the situation since it is about their Local issues which seem to excite more people.
Going further, he added that the States where Elections will be held unlike the case with the Presidential Election which held throughout Nigeria.
He held that Nigerians seem to be more excited with Elections into Executive offices meaning that voter turnout may be higher in States where Governorship Elections will be held than the 9 States and Locales where only House of Assembly Elections will be held and the FCT where their will be no elections.
He however said the turnout of voters will be lower but with a caveat that States with a tight race may witness a higher turnout during the governorship and house of assembly Election like in Lagos just like it was during the 2011 Governorship Election which was higher than the Presidential and National Assembly Elections.
On what the reconfiguration of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System machine will mean for the conduct of the 2023 Governorship and State Houses of Assembly Elections, Mr Oluwagbemi said even if an angel conducts the Election in Nigeria people will still complain no matter the result.
He said the dynamics of the Election does not support the complaint of those who said the results were rigged.
He described the claim coming from two leading opposition parties as delusional and a joke asking whether Elections won in the strongholds of the ruling party will be annulled leaving where they won untouched.
He said this smacks of dishonesty and grand delusion on their parts.
He said the current Election cycle has shown that their has been improvements in the conduct of Election in Nigeria though adds that more needs to be done especially as it affects non postponement of Election and being proactive in anticipating the kind of lawsuit which eventually led to the postponement of the Governorship and State Assemblies Elections.
He also urged Politicians in Nigeria to do much better than they currently do and imbibe the sprit of sportsmanship.
