REVEALED: How we determined authenticity of leaked tape on Ekiti election rigging – U.S. firm



New York-based security firm that helped analyse the
voices of the characters in the shocking leaked recording
on the rigged Ekiti election has given insight into how it
determined the authenticity of the audio clip.
In response to denials by Obanikoro and Fayose, Guardian
Consulting said it conducted a forensic examination on the
discussion and can guarantee that the voices are indeed
that of Fayose, Omisore and Obanikoro.
Listen to leaked audio clip below...
In a report, Guardian Consulting said it conducted a forensic
examination on the discussion and compared the voices to
public record samples of the known individuals.
In an interview with Premium Times , Tom Fitzgerald, the
President of the company, confirmed that his company did
the investigation.
“I can confirm that we did the testing,” Mr. Fitzgerald said.
He declined further comments, referring our source to a
London-based firm, ATP Advisers, who he said gave his
company the job. ATP Advisers could not be reached for
comments.
According to his Linkedin profile, Mr. Fitzgerald was a
former detective with the New York Police Detective [NYPD]
and the Foreign Bureau of Investigation (FBI). He has over
30 years experience as a detective of repute.

Re: Executive summary regarding Nigeria tapes
Nov. 27, 2014
Guardian Consulting Group LLC were engaged on Nov. 10
to conduct forensic examinations on an audio recording
purported to be a private discussion among presumed
Nigerian officials regarding disrupting an election (“The
Recording”). The first phase of the engagement was to
conduct analysis to identify the voices on The Recording by
comparing them to public record samples of known
individuals. The second phase was to judge the veracity of
selected parts of the conversation to a degree of scientific
survey.
Executive Summary of Findings:
IDENTIFICATION
The following voices from The Recording were subjected to
a Forensic Voice Frequency Comparison against known
samples and were found to match to a 98% degree of
certainty:
• Governor Ayo Favose
• Senator Iviola Omisore
• Hon. Abdulkareem
• Caleb Olubolade
The following voice from The Recording was subjected to a
Forensic Voice Frequency Comparison against a known
sample and was found to match to an 80% degree of
certainty:
• Senator Musiliu Obanikoro
VERACITY
• Gov. Avo Favose was being truthful when he said: …there
is no vehicle that left this place without that sticker.
• A person identified as Obanikoro with 80% of certainty
was judged to be completely truthful when he said to a
person identified as Abdul Kareem: If am a happy man
tomorrow night, the sky is your limit, and at the end of the
day if am unhappy…I am not here for tea party, am on a
special assignment by the president.”
• A person identified as Abdulkareem with a 98% degree of
certainty said: “I was the one who created road blocks, I
was the officer on ground sir.”)
DETAILS
The primary sample provided to Guardian Consulting is
identified as “The Recording” for filing purposes.
The client provided these known samples:

METHODOLOGY
Starting with provided sample, identified here as The
Recording, voices were isolated and five voices were
positively identified as uniquely identical through voice print
analysis. One additional background voice fragment was
isolated but no identification was made (n.b. It is possible
that the additional voice came one of the five subjects but
was distorted due to a recording or transmission glitch).
The unidentified voice fragment was fleeting and did not
make up a substantial part of the conversation.
The Forensic Voice System (“FVS”) measures including
frequencies discernable by the human ear as well as others
above and below human recognition. Patterns of the
frequencies are entered into the FVS in which a
Frequency Voice Print is then produced and displayed. The
Voice Print is quantified for comparison.
The process was repeated with the provided known
samples and Voice Prints were established for each of the
five subjects.
Identical words were identified from The Recording and the
known samples. Each of the identical words was printed.
The prints were then compared leading to the following
conclusion:
• Governor Ayo Fayose was found to match the public
sample to a 98% or greater degree of scientific certainty.
• Senator Iyiola Omisore was found to match the public
sample to a 98% or greater degree of scientific certainty.
• Honourable Abdulkareem was found to match the public
sample to a 98% or greater degree of scientific certainty.
• Caleb Olubolade was found to match the public sample to
a 98% or greater degree of scientific certainty.
. Sen. Musiliu Obanikoro was found to match the public
sample to a 80% or greater degree of scientific certainty.
The prints were further analyzed for veracity. No
substantive untruths were identified: 85% of the
conversations were deemed to contain identifiable veracity
to a 98% degree of certainty. The remaining 15% was
identified as inconclusive.
The findings are based on the samples supplied. We relied
on public identification of the known samples.
Further analysis of the voice attributed to Sen. Musiliu
Obanikoro may result in a higher degree of certainty, but
quality of the original recording not the additional publicly
available samples are the primary reason for this level of
veracity being listed. Further analysis against the new
samples will be completed on Monday December 1.
