INEC Says It Is Ready To Resume CVR On June 28

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said it is ready to resume the nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) which will commence on June 28.

This was disclosed by the INEC Deputy Director, Voter Education Division, Mrs Mary Nkem, during a road show organised by the commission in Abuja.

The deputy director said that the road show was intended to sensitise and mobilise eligible voters for the exercise.

Nkem explained:

“It is also to let FCT residents know those who are being targeted in the exercise.

“Those who have turned 18 after the last registration exercise, or those who are more than 18 years but have never registered.

“This exercise is also for those who have issues with their accreditation during the past elections, those who have issues with their Permanent Voter Cards or their biometric details.

“It will involve two processes, that is, online pre-registration and physical registration.

“So, people can sit in the comfort of their homes and login details for registration.

“Then go to any of our local government or state office to capture their biometrics and photographs; or you appear physically at any designated register.”

Fliers and handbills containing the details of the registration process were also distributed to the residents during the road show.
