BREAKING: INEC Announces End Date for Continuous Voter Registration, Reminds Nigerians of Deadline

• INEC has reminded eligible Nigerians that the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise will end on Sunday, July 26, 2026, urging prospective voters to register online or visit designated registration centres before the deadline ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has urged eligible Nigerians to take advantage of the remaining days of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise, warning that the registration window will close on Sunday, July 26, 2026.

In a public notice shared on its X handle on Saturday, the electoral body reminded prospective voters that they could complete their registration online from start to finish through its dedicated CVR portal or visit designated registration centres across the country for physical assistance.

“Your future won’t wait. Neither should you. The Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise ends Sunday, 26 July 2026,” the commission stated.

INEC encouraged Nigerians who require assistance with the registration process to visit any of its state offices, local government area offices or designated registration centres to complete their registration in person.

The commission also announced that all registration centres would remain open every day, including weekends, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. until the exercise comes to an end.

“You can complete your voter registration online from start to finish via cvr.inecnigeria.org. If you need assistance, visit any INEC State Office, LGA Office, or designated registration centre to complete your registration in person,” INEC added.

The Continuous Voter Registration exercise forms part of the commission’s preparations for the 2027 general elections, allowing eligible Nigerians, first-time voters and those seeking to update their voter information to be included in the national register of voters.
