The Chartered
Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria has launched an electronic
voting application developed by Naira.com, a subsidiary of one of
Nigeria’s leading Information and Communication Technology (ICT) firm,
Chams Plc.

Registrar of the
Institute, Musa Rabiu said, “The decision to adopt an e-Voting
application is in line with the institute’s vision to be the foremost
people management institute in Africa, respected across the world. He
said he was very convinced that application of information technology
could simplify a lot of processes currently done manually.

“I am a convert of
electronic voting and wish that it is deployed in other elections in
the country. It has really made things easier and transparent for all
to see.”

Also speaking, the
General Manager of Naira.com, Juliet Ehimuan, said “it was gladdening
that a professional body as CIPM had taken the lead in terms of use of
e-Voting to handle its election.” She said that the application, which
has many rich features, is the effort of her firm’s in-house software
developers.

Head of Operations,
Naira.com, Lape Mobolaji-Lawal, said “The application is just one part
of the solution being delivered by Naira.com to CIPM, noting that the
firm was helping to develop an online portal that would enable members
to interact with the organisation more easily, get up to date
information, and make secure payments online for fees, dues, and other
items.”
