In preparation for the 2027 general elections, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has finalized plans to commence the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise nationwide.
The commission, according to a statement posted on its official X handle on Friday, the two-phase exercise will kick off with online pre-registration on August 18, 2025, via the commission’s dedicated portal: cvr.inecnigeria.org. Physical, in-person registration is scheduled to begin a week later, on August 25, across all local government offices and designated registration centres in the country.
The registration will hold on weekdays—Mondays to Fridays—from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm daily.
INEC noted that the CVR exercise, which was recently conducted in Anambra State ahead of its upcoming governorship election, will now be extended nationwide. Eligible voters who missed the Anambra registration are encouraged to take advantage of the new exercise.
“Your votes start with registration. Don’t miss your opportunity to register,” the commission urged Nigerians.
