INEC asks Nigerians to Help Clean up Voters’ Register.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has called on Nigerians to help the electoral body in cleaning up the voters’ register.

INEC’s National Commissioner Festus Okoye made the plea yesterday following reports that some under aged persons were included in the voters’ register ahead of the 2023 general election.

Okoye who agreed that the register is not perfect, added that Nigerians are expected to take a look at it – both the ones displayed at the various registration centres and local government and also the one on the website – and assist the Commission to point out these things so that it can further clean up the register.

He, however, admitted that the cleanup of the register is a continuous process, saying some staff of the Commission are “complicit” in the registration of under aged people and other irregularities in the voters’ register.
