 The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, says not all who registered for the continuous voter registration CVR, which was suspended at the weekend, would be entitled to permanent voter cards previously to make them eligible to vote. INEC National Commissioner for Information and Voter Education, Festus Okoye, who made the disclosure while speaking in Abuja, put the estimated number of voters for the 2023 January elections at 95 million and maintained that prospective voters who indulged in multiple or double registration would be deleted from the database. Okoye recalled that in the first and second quarters of the CVR, over 46% of those who registered were removed from the commission data for multiple registrations.
