 The House of Representatives has urged INEC to conduct physical registrations across the country. It also asked INEC to increase the time frame of the new voter's registration across Nigeria. Emmanuel Higienic completes the report. Honourable Abubaka Yalaman from Jigawa State moved a motion at Plenary on Thursday. He suggested that INEC conduct fresh physical registration across the country. While debating the motion, he said many constituencies have been displaced due to non-availability of registration centres and officials, insufficient operational tools and equipment, among others, arose a drawback for successful conduct of elections. Honourable Yalaman said if the voter registration exercise is completed without addressing these challenges, many citizens will be disenfranchised in the forthcoming election. Honourable Kogama federal constancy and many other federal constancies have been placed at disadvantage position due to the non-availability of registration registered voters, centres and officials in adequate power supply, insufficient official tools and equipment, as well as inadequate enlightenment program. The gold on INEC to consider the current realities on the ground in most constituencies by deploying both physical and virtual processes in the proposed voter registration. But we adopt this motion as our own motion because, like I said, it has spoken directly to the concerns we have about registration. It is a motion also that seeks to address some of the deficiencies and major concerns of our electoral procedures and our voting system. Not up to 10%, Mr Speaker, have access to what INEC are using now to do the continuous voters registration. Mr Speaker, until and unless the physical enumerators like it has done in the past, INEC are advised or compelled, in other words, to ensure that they employ art folk staff to go the four angles of Nigeria and ensure that they have captured citizens of this country who are eligible, who is not a privilege for them to participate in the forthcoming election. We look at the statistics of last year and the statistics of this year. You'll find that that is almost more than 10 times more people were registered manually by this time last year. So online registration hasn't helped us. So we need to not only ensure that we mix both physical, manual and online at the same time, which means INEC going physically to all the voting centers and make sure that there's time enough. The motion was passed when proved to vote by the Speaker. He mandated the House Committee on Electro-Matters to ensure compliance and report for further legislative action.
