The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said it is yet to announce any date for the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).
INEC said this in reaction to a viral social media message, claiming that the CVR, including the transfer and replacement of lost Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) will resume on May 27, 2025.
Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi who said this on Sunday, urged Nigerians to disregard the fake statement making the rounds.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) wishes to inform the general public that it has not yet announced any date for the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), Transfer and Replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs).
“The Commission therefore urges the public to disregard the fake, anonymous statement making the rounds, claiming that the CVR and other associated services will resume on 27th May 2025.
“In line with its tradition, the Commission will publicly announce the date for the resumption of the CVR at the appropriate time, the full details of which will also be shared via our official social media platforms,” he stated.
