The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Lagos State will begin its Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise on Monday, August 18, 2025, with an initial online pre-registration phase.
Resident Electoral Commissioner, Prof. Ayobami Salami, announced that in-person biometric capturing will commence on August 25 at the state headquarters in Yaba and all 20 local government offices.
The year-long exercise, ending August 30, 2026, is open to new voters aged 18 and above, those replacing lost or damaged Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), transferring polling units, or updating personal information.
Salami cautioned against underage and multiple registrations, warning that offenders will be prosecuted.
Registration is available at designated INEC offices across Lagos or online via https://www.cvr.inecnigeria.org and www.cvr.inec.gov.ng.
