The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has resumed the nationwide continuous voter registration (CVR) exercise, marking the start of the second phase of the process.
The resumption which took effect today, follows the conclusion of the first phase of the CVR that formally ended on December 10, 2025.
INEC had launched the online pre-registration for the exercise on August 18, 2025, before commencing in-person registration at designated centres nationwide on August 25, 2025.
In a statement in December, the commission disclosed that 9,891,801 Nigerians initiated online pre-registration during the first phase of the exercise.
Of this figure, INEC said 2,572,054 registrations were fully completed nationwide as of November 28, 2025, consisting of 1,503,832 online completions and 1,068,222 physical registrations.
The commission said the interval between the two phases was used to carry out statutory activities required by law, including the display of the register of voters for claims and objections.
“In accordance with Section 19 of the Electoral Act 2022, the display of the register of voters for claims and objections was held from December 15 to 21, 2025, at local government area offices where the CVR exercise was conducted,” INEC said.
The electoral body urged eligible Nigerians to take advantage of the resumption to register, transfer their voting locations, or update their personal details.
INEC also called on eligible voters who registered during the first phase of the exercise to continue to verify their information, report errors, and raise objections to the inclusion of ineligible or deceased persons on the voters’ register.
The commission, however, noted that CVR activities remain suspended in Anambra state and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) due to ongoing electoral activities in both locations.
According to INEC, new dates for the resumption of voter registration in Anambra and the FCT will be announced in due course.
