The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has delisted 1.1 million newly registered voters ahead of the 2023 general elections.
INEC National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, FESTUS OKOYE, said this in a statement today, noting that Nigerians are aware of the cleaning up of the register of voters with the Automated Biometric Identification System (ABIS).
OKOYE explained that through the ABIS, multiple and ineligible registrants have been detected and invalidated, adding that the Commission takes this responsibility seriously because a credible register is at the heart of electoral integrity.
