As Nigerians prepare for the upcoming electoral polls, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, set up an online Continuous Voter Registration last year, to enable Nigerians to sign up online and continue their registration at a physical location.

INEC, Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu said the aim of the CVR website was to “enhance voter experience by making the registration exercise faster, easier, and less crowded than before”.

“The portal allows a two-step registration process in which first, prospective registrants log in to pre-register by providing their basic biodata and some biometrics and second to complete the registration by physically presenting themselves at a designated registration centre of their choice,” he stated.

INEC has also announced that the online registration ends on 30th May 2022, urging Nigerians to complete their application and schedule appointments for biometric capture before then.

The CVR website also stated that the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise ends by 30th June 2022.

 

“This will enable the Commission to clean up the registration data, print the Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) and compile the register ahead of the 2023 General Elections,” it said.
