The march towards the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Area Council elections has officially begun. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has published the comprehensive register of voters, setting the stage for the February 21 polls.

In a move to ensure transparency, INEC has pasted the register at all ward headquarters across Abuja, allowing citizens to verify their details. "The era of ghost voters is over," an INEC commissioner declared. "We are deploying the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) to ensure that only living, present Nigerians cast a ballot."

Anambra Update

Simultaneously, the commission has resumed the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise in Anambra State, preparing for the upcoming governorship election. The resumption follows a lull caused by security challenges in the South East. INEC has assured residents of enhanced security at registration centers, urging the youth to "get your PVC and get involved."
