“We are going to make sure that we don’t waste time or delay the collation until Sunday night, we want to be fast as much and possible.
“It is not a tea party collation, it is not a time to talk all the time in the world, go straight to the business.
“We urge everyone to perform his duty conscientiously, in a fair and just manner, not taking sides; do the needful and be quick,“ he said.
The REC urged the collation officers to avoid collation of results in the dark.
