INEC to Resume Nationwide Voter Registration in February 2025: What You Need to Know
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced plans to resume nationwide voter registration in February 2025.
The exercise will aim to ensure that eligible Nigerians who have yet to register are included in the electoral process.
INEC’s decision aligns with its commitment to improving voter participation and addressing challenges from previous registration exercises.
The Commission plans to deploy enhanced technology to make the process seamless and accessible, particularly in remote areas.
This announcement comes ahead of the 2027 general elections, giving Nigerians ample time to register and collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).
INEC is expected to release more details, including the registration schedule and locations, in the coming weeks.
The move has been welcomed by civic groups and citizens advocating for increased electoral participation, as it provides an opportunity to bridge the gaps from the last registration cycle.
