Sounds like he got a bit confused a bit, if we are to literally write down what he said:
"none of the above, we have no invalid on-site vote,8 none of the above online"

It does sounds like there was simply no on-site vote for none of the above.

He also calls the none of the above as invalid votes here as well which is clearly just a mistake:

It doesn't sound like a big problem.

That's the end of the video.
What segment are you referring to, was it the one around 3:05?

Can you explain what are your intentions behind this repeated claim that none of the above was not counted?
No one raised objections on the spot, losing candidates accepted the results, session was adjourned.

So all the elected directors of 2017 are illegals and must be removed!
That leaves Seun Ojedeji as the only legitimate elected director and with Alan as an appointed director.

See the first 40 seconds of the video at <https://youtu.be/HSJCRrKoOgs>.  This obviously means that zero votes went to “None of the above”.  I don’t know how you jump from that to “votes were not even counted” or “I wonder how the winner was determined”.
