The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is ending its nationwide voter registration drive today, adhering strictly to its official schedule.
Throughout the final days, thousands of citizens gathered at registration centers, hoping to secure their spot on the voter rolls before the deadline.
Opposition political leaders are urging INEC to extend the deadline, pointing to several key challenge such as high crowds at local offices left many citizens waiting for hours without being processed.
System slow-downs and equipment issues delayed data collection in many areas.
Rural communities faced a shortage of registration centers, making travel difficult for voters.
INEC officials maintain that ending the registration process today is necessary to prepare for election day.
They stated that the staffs need adequate time to review records and remove duplicate entries.
Millions of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) must be printed and delivered to local centers.
The updated voters' list must be published publicly so citizens can check their details ahead of time.
