INDEPENDENT NATIONAL ELECTORAL COMMISSION
PRESS STATEMENT
RESUMPTION OF NATIONWIDE CONTINUOUS VOTER REGISTRATION (CVR) FOR FINAL PHASE
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) wishes to inform the general public that the current nationwide Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise will resume for its third and final phase on Monday, 11th May 2026.
It may be recalled that the second phase of the exercise was suspended on 17th April 2026 to allow the Commission clean up the register after its publication for claims and objections by registrants.
The third phase of the CVR, which begins on Monday, 11th May 2026, will end on Friday, 10th July 2026. During this period, eligible citizens who have attained the age of 18, as well as those who were unable to register during the earlier phases, should seize this opportunity to do so.
Similarly, registered voters who wish to transfer their registration, replace lost or damaged Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), or correct their biodata, are advised to access the Commission’s dedicated online portal at https://t.co/TXA4XP2fCk or visit INEC State and Local Government Area offices nationwide.
In continuation of the process, the Commission will display the Register of Voters for claims and objections from Thursday, 23rd July to Wednesday, 29th July 2026. This statutory exercise provides an important opportunity for citizens to scrutinise the register and assist the Commission in ensuring its accuracy, completeness and credibility.
The Commission reassures Nigerians that all necessary arrangements have been concluded for the smooth conduct of the exercise. We once again appeal to all eligible citizens to present themselves for registration and to play their part in strengthening the foundation of our electoral process.

Oya oo
I broke down the details on what to do step by step, so just follow along and get yours Thursday or Friday.
Don’t forget that Friday is the current deadline, so what you must do, do quickly.
Once again, please believe that your vote will count, because we will fight for it.

Im worried for our generation, because if you read this caption and watch the video, they are saying and passing two different messages… it is well. Guys please form an opinion for yourself!
I’m deeply exhausted but my heart is full. I’ll go to bed now.
Please donate to our cause if you can. We want to change the world, but someone has to pay for it. The bigger we grow, the more responsibility we take on.
We won’t stop.
NOT-SO-FUN FUN FACT: The most expensive flight on this entire #AlmaChasingContinents journey (apart from Antarctica) was the final leg of my journey back to Nigeria - from London to Lagos.
I’ve flown on at least 15 flights in the past week, over 6 of them being long-haul flights of 10-15 hours.
None of them cost as much as this 5-hr flight from London to Lagos.
Do you want to take a quick guess what the second most expensive flight was?
The flight out of Nigeria when I was heading to my starting point.
Flying to or from Nigeria is unjustifiably expensive, and something needs to be done about it. It should not cost this much to travel.
