[kictanet] IEBC registry shows 128, 926 records of shared voter details - Who audits the IEBC database?

[Collins Areba]

@Ronald
I suspect the offline nature of collection of data and biometric
information might have resulted in multiple data points in cases of genuine
ID number shared between more than one person (how that happens I have no
clue) or trying to register more than once. If you ask me, What should have
happened is for them to delete all repeating entries, and leave the burden
of proof on the registrants. At least the database would at all times then
be accurate.
