        abstract = {Voting is a concept used to describe the part of the election process. It is a
means by which the citizens choose who to lead them for a designated period.
There is various type of manual and electronic voting processes currently in
use. Manual voting processes have become a tool by which government
bodies in Nigeria and other African countries at considerable take advantage
of to push unworthy people into power. The Nigeria voting system is a typical
example of this misfortune, where voters are subjected to long queues before
they can perform their legal duty as a citizen. This existing system is faced
with numerous challenges such as hooliganism where glorified thugs snatch
ballot boxes and disrupt the peace and tranquillity of the voting process.
Therefore, a loyal citizen who is bound to vote is unable to perform their legal
duty, leading to the manipulation of results and other voting crises. This
research proposed a mobile voting platform to deal with the challenges as
mentioned earlier associated with a manual voting system that is ineffective
and inconvenient for citizens. The proposed system will improve how the
election is being conducted in Nigeria and other countries that are faced with
similar challenges in the voting process. The scheme aims to allow eligible
voters with registered voters card (PVC) in Nigeria and diaspora to cast their
votes in their respective places of residence as long as the mobile application
is accessible on their mobile devices which will be available on various
versions such as Android, iOS, Windows operating system. Each voter?s
details will be secure through the use of various cryptographic techniques and
verified with the use of one-time password during the voting process. This process will make the election process flawless, efficient, convenient, secured
and timely in the area of result compilation and final verdict. Also, the system
will eliminate violence and result in manipulation.}
