In a statement issued Tuesday by the Chairman of its Information and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Kudu Haruna, the commission said the exercise would run until July 10, 2026, providing another window for eligible Nigerians to register.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission wishes to inform the general public that the current nationwide Continuous Voter Registration exercise will resume for its third and final phase on Monday, 11th May 2026,” the statement read.
INEC explained that the second phase of the exercise was suspended on April 17, 2026, to allow for data clean-up following the publication of the register for claims and objections.
“It may be recalled that the second phase of the exercise was suspended on 17th April 2026 to allow the Commission clean up the register after its publication for claims and objections by registrants,” Haruna stated.
The commission urged eligible citizens who have turned 18, as well as those who missed earlier phases, to take advantage of the opportunity, noting that provisions have been made for new registrations and updates.
“During this period, eligible citizens who have attained the age of 18, as well as those who were unable to register during the earlier phases, should seize this opportunity to do so,” the statement added.
