The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said it will commence the display of the Register of Voters after the end of the first quarter of nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise for claims and objections between December 15 to 21.
INEC Director of Voter Education and Publicity, Victoria Eta-Messi, who disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, said the display will take place at local government offices where the exercise took place.
Eta-Messi urged all eligible citizens, especially 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.
“Nigerians may recall that the ongoing nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise commenced with online pre-registration on 18th August 2025, followed by in-person registration on 25th August 2025 across the 774 Local Government Areas, all State Offices, and the FCT.
“The Commission wishes to inform the public that the first quarter of this exercise will formally close on Wednesday, 10th December 2025.
“In line with Section 19 of the Electoral Act 2022, the Commission will commence the Display of the Register of Voters for Claims and Objections from 15th to 21st December 2025. The display will take place at Local Government Offices where the exercise took place,” she said.
Eta-Messi also stated that at the end of the 13th week of the exercise, a total of 9,891,801 online pre-registrations have been received nationwide.
She explained that of this total, 2,572,054 registrations had been fully completed, including 1,503,832 online completions and 1,068,222 physical registrations as of November 28, 2025.
“The Commission also wishes to remind the public that the CVR exercise in Anambra State and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) remains suspended due to electoral activities in both locations. New dates for the resumption of the exercise in both locations will be communicated in due course,” Eta-Messi said.
In line with the earlier released timelines for the CVR exercise, INEC said the 2nd phase of the exercise will resume on January 5, 2026.
