The challenges of elections in Nigeria have led to the introduction of a technological device called the Bimodal
Voter Accreditation System (BVAS). This however didn’t usher in the needed free and fair elections due to the
compromise of the security and the outright absence of some security features that would have made the device
difficult and almost impossible for intruders to attack. The researchers took time to elucidate on the challenges,
features and likely security breaches. They went further in the research to opine some solutions which in their
own view would help solve the issue of security and engender free and fair election if all other factors are held
constant.
