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.

When this new Chief justice was appointed people were talking about how good she is. It's been over a year since she assumed her role and I am not aware of anything significant she has done to change the judiciary. I assume everything is working as planned

@cisero81@SavvyRinu@obyezeks Before you waste your data typing, you should go and check what she did under OBJ govt. She introduced Due diligence in contract awards. She did so well she was made a minister in the administration. She wasn't in govt to play politics. She came to do the job she was given.
@DjokovicFan_@DjokerNole@camilougo@MiamiOpen Almost all the big names are out, but still got a Lot of tough games ahead. I started playing and watching tennis because of Djokovic so without a doubt, I will be routing for him to win every match he plays till he retires
@ihe69@osita_chidoka If I check your profile and tweet history, it's either you are an APC supporter or someone just looking for tweet engagements cause this your post is baseless.
But I won't waste my data further on engaging you.
Continue the baseless and unwarranted abuse
@talktoraye @atiku@officialnyscng What time are they expecting you at the NYSC office. Nigerians need to accompany you for the meeting...
Abi Nigerians, does she not need company?
@IretiKingibe You say you demand for fair qnd transparent hearing when the petition is brought to the red chamber. How will that happen when Senator Natasha is on suspension.
Or are you planning to submit a new petition on her behalf?
@IretiKingibe As the chairman senate committee on women, if you really meant well, you should have spoken against the ethics committee chairman that declared the petition submitted by Senator Natasha as "dead on arrival"
@Thuso1Africa If I were to answer your truthfully some people will say I am not loyal to my country.
The answer is yes. The system is designed to protect offender.
I choose to be loyal to humanity
@AreaFada1 I respect you sir, for speaking out what a lot of people fear to say. The culture in Nigeria says you shouldnt speak ill about the dead even if the dead did evil. This culture should be buried. This is why evil persists as evil people still earn undue respect even in there graves
@TheoAbuAgada The only resolution that will make sense will be for Akpabio to step down and be investigated for the charges brought against him. Anything else will be just fruitless talks. Yes we want Natasha reinstated, but the issue is more than just that
