Following this post, some netizens have chastised the the EC board member for failing to understand that the technical difficulties being experienced at the registration centers requires practical steps other than spiritual warfare to address the problem.
Meanwhile, the EC has issued an apology for the network challenges experienced during the second day of the voters’ registration exercise.
