“Information reaching the commission that some persons have been circulating messages online that INEC has giving another opportunity to register for your PVC, starting on the 2nd to 10th December 2018. “The report is untrue and we advise the public to ignore it.”
THOSE pushing for fresh voter registration got a reply from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) yesterday. “Wait until after next year’s general elections,” the commission has said.
INEC debunked reports that it has commenced fresh registration of voters. It noted that the news, which has gone viral in the social media was untrue.
Besides, the commission said voter registration will only resume after the 2019 general elections.
In a tweet @inecnigeria, the electoral body shared by INEC Director on Information & Voter Education, Oluwole Osaze Uzzi, said Nigerians should disregard the false information being circulated on the social media.
The tweet reads: “Information reaching the commission that some persons have been circulating messages online that INEC has giving another opportunity to register for your PVC, starting on the 2nd to 10th December 2018.
“The report is untrue and we advise the public to ignore it.”
