The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has dismissed reports circulating online that claim a date has been set for the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise, including services like voter transfer and replacement of lost Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).
In a statement released on Sunday via X by Rotimi Oyekanmi, the Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, the commission urged the public to disregard an anonymous online message falsely stating that the CVR would resume on May 27, 2025.
INEC reiterated that no date has been announced yet for the resumption of these activities.

The Commission emphasized that any official information regarding the CVR will be communicated through its verified social media accounts and other official channels in due course.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission wishes to inform the general public that it has not yet announced any date for the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration, Transfer and Replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards.
“The Commission therefore urges the public to disregard the fake, anonymous statement making the rounds, claiming that the CVR and other associated services will resume on 27th May 2025.
“In line with its tradition, the Commission will publicly announce the date for the resumption of the CVR at the appropriate time, the full details of which will also be shared via our official social media platforms,” the statement read.
