The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has refuted reports suggesting it will resume the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) and the replacement of lost Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) on May 27, 2025.
Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, debunked the claims on Tuesday, clarifying that no official date has been set for the exercise.
“The attention of INEC has been drawn to a misleading report making the rounds, alleging that we will resume the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) and replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) on May 27, 2025,” Oyekanmi stated.
He emphasized that the report was false and urged the public to disregard it. “The Commission has not announced any resumption date for the CVR. We appeal to the public to ignore the false narrative,” he added.
