The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced a nationwide voter revalidation exercise to ensure the accuracy and reliability of Nigeria’s voter register ahead of future elections.
The exercise will officially begin on April 13, 2026, and will take place across all states.
This process is specifically for individuals who have already registered as voters, especially those who registered between 2011 and 2024. It is not a new registration but an opportunity to confirm and update your details to avoid any issues on election day.
