Seven weeks after commencement of the exercise, INEC’s spokesperson, Festus Okoye, said in a statement, yesterday, that the number of fresh registrants has risen to 1,609,981, while 195,591 citizens have completed physical registration.
The figure, however, does not include applications submitted by people who requested voter transfer, replacement of PVCs, or update of voter information record.
