Voter Registration To Resume In Q1 2021 – INEC
NOVEMBER 10, 2020
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said that it plans to resume its Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) in the first quarter of 2021.
INEC’s Acting Chairman, Ahmed Muazu, who made the disclosure at the electoral commission’s quarterly meeting with political parties in Abuja, solicited the latters’ collaboration and support for a successful take-off of the exercise.
He said that the meeting was also to consult with the political parties on the 15 by-elections in 11 states, earlier scheduled for Oct. 31, but which were suspended because of the security situation in the country.

Mu’azu commended the leadership and candidates of political parties for the role they played in ensuring peace during the just-concluded Edo and Ondo governorship elections.
“All efforts including signing and keeping to the letters and the spirit of the peace accord as well as adherence to the commission’s Voters Code of Conduct for elections during the COVID-19 pandemic are fully acknowledged.
“Nevertheless, the Commission feels that there is room for improvement. We would therefore welcome your feedback on the conduct of elections,’’ Mu’azu said.
