The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), is set to display the voters Register for claims and objections from 15th to 21st December, 2025; as the ongoing registration first quarter ended.
In a statement on Wednesday, the commission drew the attention of the general public to take their time to check vividly for claims and objections especially on those who registered, transferred, or updated their information during this phase, to use this statutory window to verify their details, report inaccuracies, and draw attention to ineligible or deceased persons on the register.
Public participation in this process, it said is essential to safeguarding the integrity of the Register of Voters.
The first quarter of this exercise which will formally close on Wednesday, 10th December 2025, is in line with the earlier released timelines for the CVR exercise, while the 2nd phase of the exercise will resume on January 5th, 2026.
