INEC Announces Date To Resume Nationwide Voter Registration
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it will commence nationwide continuous voter registration (CVR) in the first quarter of 2025.
The electoral body said the exercise will commence at the LGA level and later extend to registration areas.
In a memo dated November 20, 2024, sighted by TheCable, Rose Oriaran-Anthony, the commission’s secretary, asked resident electoral commissioners to make some arrangements for the exercise.
“Kindly provide the following information for adequate preparation for the exercise: Status of INEC Voter Enrolment Device (IVED) and accessories in the state,” the memo reads.
“Status of both coloured and black/white heavy-duty printers and availability of CVR Forms/materials.
“The commission is considering commencing the exercise at Local Government Area (LGA) level and later devolve to Registration Area (RA) level.
“The state offices are expected to identify and select staff that will work as voter registration officials.
“You are to please prepare the information of uncollected Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) to facilitate the printing of the Register of uncollected PVCs for display during the exercise.”
In July 2022, the electoral body suspended the CVR exercise ahead of the 2023 general election.
However, INEC conducted voter registration exercises in states in which off-cycle elections took place.
