Voters have been left frustrated in Ward 7, Unit 39, as the BIVAS machine failed.
The 839 registered voters seated around the unit as they await another machine from INEC.
The polling unit official confirmed that a new machine will brought for the election, expressing hope that the voting time will be extended.
Speaking with our correspondent, a senior citizen, Friday Aiwekhoe, said it was appalling that the BIVAS machine would fail despite the preparation the INEC put into the exercise.
He noted that the problem could be a political and a ploy to disenfranchise the people.
More to come…
