Go and register and get your PVC. Polling units are not on social media

Anyone shouting rigging after the 2027 election might be arrested and send to prison as we don't want any silly excuses from the opposition in 2027

Obidients go and register oo no INEC polling unit in social media

It should extend to 3 months before elections period!✅

In my SANE CLIMATE:
Up to 1 month before elections!

Trying to delay registration to STEAL VOTERS’ PVCs.🙄

As a typical Nigerian, I'll wait until the 24rd before going to do my registration. Then I'll complain about the crowd and how incompetent the system is. I'll blame Lord Lugard and his girlfriend for joining this country together.

I'll blame baba Alakara and Iya Alakara and APC for keeping me in the sun for over 6 hours without attending to me. I'll talk about how every system in the country has failed.

Then INEC would move the date forward and I'll go home and wait for the deadline before repeating the same process again.

Thank you for this...
I was just thinking how I was going to be able to meet up

So voter registration is ongoing self.
Nawah oooo, I need to vote Tinubu ooo

You just described a typical Nigerian.

Wow I need to get my voters card o, it is very essential. I don't want to be online voters.

This is when we all need the so-called "celebrities" and "influencers" to make their followers aware so the can have their PVCs and vote rightly in the next elections.

Dont let your conscience be bought again for another 4 years with ordinary rice, garri etc.

I'm 28 years old and I have never voted in my life. I have never in set eyes on what voting paper looks like because I dont always enroll for PVC. Do you think this behavior of mine is normal that way?? I just hate to participate in anything that situated in election.

They really need to make that process easier

First time voters find it hard to use that platform

And who tells you I'm suffering and smiling. I just don't believe this voting really counts as I have total disbelief in the system.

All the politicians are the same even if Peter Obi wins the election. He could turn out to be "Booggle" the firewolf in disguise

That is their plan ke. All to rig by stealing and selling people’s PVCs that they frustrated to collect.

APC-CRIMINALS!😂

The portal is actually very easy to use.

Also, INEC has now simplified the process such that you can do everything on your phone, including capturing your passport photo and fingerprints.

In future, we might be able to vote without even leaving our homes.

Why the extension?

This is uncalled for!

INEC should be strict with deadlines.

But eye neck rigging for your koro koro eye

Been to 2 inec offices lately in Benin.
Omo people are not turning up unless everyone has a PVC already which is doubtful.

And what stop them from conducting electronic voting if not partizanship and rigging

Allow Peter Obi to be the president first, before assessing him. For now, assess bulaba and his suffocating policies/chronic hardship

After completing your registration or data update online, there is an option for you to select where to collect your voter's card.

You can simply select the one nearest to your location (which is usually the nearest Local Government HQ).

Regardless of your disillusionment, it is still your right and responsibility to vote (or be voted for).

Has it occurred to you that the best leaders are those who are driven by a burning desire to make a positive change in their environment?

In your neighborhood, town, or state, you might actually be that leader for whom they have been praying.

Yes, it is that easy.

So, make sure to register, collect your PVC, and also vote in the elections.

You just comically capture attitude of most of Nigerians. Busy but doing nothing Nigerians youths. I won't blame Buhari for calling Nigerian youths lazy.
