Abstract
Voting is an essential and crucial aspect of any election and involve the processes of electing leaders or representatives into positions of authority in a democratic system of government. This process is usually marred with multiple irregularities such as falsification of results, identity theft, stolen of ballot boxes, multiple voting problems, double voting , over voting, delay in the release of voting results, and electoral fraud just to mention a few as commonly associated problems with elections in developing countries in which Nigeria is no exception. In this research, we aim at solving the various difficulties and anomalies associated with manual based voting processes by using agile development and components based software engineering principles to evolve a robust and reliable electronic voting system that can be used to conduct national election and any other election in the country. This will enhance and guarantee the credibility of the electoral processes and show a true reflection of the wishes of the people. However, the need for speed, reusability and adaptability informed this effort to apply agile and Component based approach (CBSE). The researcher engaged in requirements analysis, design, implementation, and evaluation of the system using RAS benchmark metrics and estimation techniques like function point analysis (FPA) and constructive cost model (COCOMO).
