INEC Posts Preliminary Voters Register for 2027 Elections

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has put out the preliminary voters register for the 2027 general elections online. This was announced in a statement by the commission on Wednesday.

INEC said the preliminary voters register lists the names of eligible voters who have registered to vote in the upcoming elections. The commission asked citizens to check their names on the register to confirm they can take part in the electoral process.

INEC also noted that publishing the preliminary voters register shows its dedication to being open and accountable in the electoral process. The commission highlighted that public participation in checking the voters register is important. It allows for corrections and updates before the final register is released.

To make it easier for everyone, INEC has set up a platform where citizens can access the preliminary voters register online. This means voters can check their registration status from home. INEC has urged all eligible voters to use this chance to confirm their names are on the register before the elections.
