The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Thursday debunked reports, particularly in the social media, that the commission has opened room for fresh registration for permanent voter’s cards slated from 2nd of December to 10th December.
The social media was awash on Thursday with the report of the commission beginning a new phase of registration to capture those who have not yet registered.
A statement from the commission’s Director of Publicity and Voter Registration, Oluwole Osaze, on Thursday, explained that INEC was not in any way intending to embark on such an exercise.
According to the commission on INEC twitter handle, says,
“Information reaching the Commission that some persons have been circulating messages online that “INEC HAS GIVING ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO REGISTER FOR YOUR PVC, STARTING ON THE 2ND TO 10TH DECEMBER 2018”. The report is untrue and we advise the public to ignore it.”
