The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has set to commence online portal for voters regeneration ahead of 2023 general election.
It was gathered that the portal will go live on Monday when the online registration is scheduled to commence.
INEC chairman Mahmood Yakubu made the disclosure while speaking to journalists in Abuja on Thursday.
He said the portal was created for intending registrants to commence the process online by providing relevant details before booking an appointment to visit the commission’s office.
They can then visit any INEC state or LGA office to complete the process from July 19, the same day the physical registration is scheduled to start.
Yakubu said that as a result of security challenges in some parts of the country, the commission decided to start the registration online before it commences fully at all the 2,673 registration centres nationwide on a letter date.
According to him, “In addition, those who are already registered as voters can carry out all the other activities such as transfers, correction of personal details and replacement of damaged or defaced PVCs online,” he said.
“We hope that through this portal, we shall reduce overcrowding at our registration centres, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, make the registration processes generally easier, thereby giving Nigerians a pleasant electoral experience.
“However, I must quickly reiterate that the online registration is a public service and therefore free of charge. There is no INEC-approved cybercafe, no online registration centre and no scratch card to be purchased for the exercise. All you need is a device, including your mobile phones, that can connect to the internet”, he stated.
Mahmood added that INEC has acquired all the equipment for the voter registration and has also planned for the deployment of 5,346 staff to the registration centres.
Among the equipment he mentioned is a new registration machine called the INEC voter enrolment device (IVED) which will replace the laptop-based old direct data capture machine (DDCM).
“I am glad to say that our engineers designed the IVED in-house before it was fabricated abroad. It is more mobile and efficient than the DDCM and could also be deployed to other activities, particularly the accreditation of voters during elections,” he said.
Recall INEC had converted a total of 56,872 voting points and voting point settlements into polling units to make it easier to vote in elections.
