The Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC) in Lagos State, has said many Nigerians may not have been captured in the INEC Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) that ends nationwide on Sunday.
It also said that many Nigerians that would be of voting age some months to the election would also be disenfranchised.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise which started on June 28, 2021, was initially billed to end on June 30, before it was extended to July 31.
INEC Resident Electoral Commission (REC) in Lagos state, Mr Olusegun Agbaje said on July 24, that current statistics of July 28, showed that Lagos State had about seven million registered voters.
The REC disclosed that the number was derived from the new registrants so far in the ongoing CVR, added to those in the old register of voters in the state.
IPAC Chairman in Lagos State, Mr Olusegun Mobolaji, however, said INEC should reconsider ending the registration.
