New CVR date untrue – INEC

The Independent National Electoral Commission has urged members of the public to ignore social media report alleging that it has given another opportunity for Continuous Voter Registration before the 2019 general elections.
The Commission gave the clarification through its twitter handle @inecnigeria on Thursday in Abuja.
The commission said: “Information reaching the Commission that some persons have been circulating messages online that ‘INEC has given another opportunity to register for PVCs, starting from December 2 to December 10, 2018’.
“The report is untrue and we advise the public to ignore it.”
The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that INEC commenced CVR on April 27, 2017, ahead of the 2019 poll.
Although, the exercise was suspended on August 17, it was extended to August 31, after consultations with stakeholders.
