Ahead of the 2027 general elections, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it is yet to announce any date for the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), Transfer and Replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs).
The INEC Chairman, Prof Mahmood Yakubu, said this on Sunday in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi.
He denied that the commission has set 27th May 2025 as the date for the exercises.
“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,” Oyekanmi said.
