The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) used to illustrate story.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it would shed voters from congested polling units to less populated ones as part of plans to ensure a seamless voting process.
The commission intends to allot voters from congested polling units to less congested units within the same location to avoid overcrowded polling units on February 25 and March 11, a statement by INEC said.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in exercise of its powers under Section 40(2) of the Electoral Act, 2022 has allotted voters from overcrowded polling units to less congested polling units within the same location to promote a more pleasant and stress free voting experience on Election Day,” reads a statement by the nation’s electoral body.
Voters were encouraged to visit the verification portal: www.cvr.inecnigeria.org/vvs or voters.inecnigeria.org to confirm their names on the register and designated polling unit.
“Furthermore, the list of registered voters in the 176,846 polling units nationwide will be on display at each polling unit prior to the Election Day,” the statement added.
Additionally, INEC asked voters to go to their polling units to verify that their names were on the voter list and confirm that they would be casting a ballot there.
