My Experience At INEC Office Today by Akby(m): 4:08pm On Jul 19, 2018
INEC really surprised me today. In fact, it all still seemed like a magic to me. Please read on…

I did my registration in 2011 at Owo Local Government, Ondo State. The registration process was about closing so I took time to register even though I knew I won’t come back to vote there (I reside in Lagos). When I learnt I couldn’t register again in 2015, I felt perplexed and just lost interest in the whole process. No way I was going back to Owo to collect my PVC. I barely even know the town and considering time constraint too.

After witnessing what happened at Ekiti elections, I took it upon myself to get my PVC whatever it's going to take. I took time off work today to visit INEC office – Alimosho LGA, Lagos. I went with my voter’s temporal slip, international passport, NIN slip and NYSC credentials (Yeah I took it lol!). I was super prepared for any document they’ll request.

I explained my plight to the official and he said I should verify my details online before proceeding. www. voters. inecnigeria. org (Please mind the way the link was typed). I punched in my details and hoola I saw my previous registration details. He told me to go and print it at a nearby café and submit at the second office.
On submission, the friendly lady brought out a transfer form and filled my details for me. She also brought out the database of all polling centres in Lagos and told me to pick the one nearest to where I reside. I did and she stapled the online print out with the transfer form. I signed beneath the page and she tore the slip for me. That was all

She said I should come back in November with the slip to collect my new PVC. She also said I would be notified via text message when the card is ready.

My joy knew no bounds as I stepped out of INEC office – Alimosho Local Government. I’ve heard a lot about INEC and their slow process but today changed my orientation entirely. I didn’t pay a dime or bribe anybody. It was 100% free. In fact, I didn’t spend up to 15mins.
For as many that are in my shoes, you can now collect your PVC and transfer your polling unit without stress. Please visit the nearest INEC office today to get your PVC.

God bless Nigeria

Na so!

By November they will ask you to return in January or go to your original registration to do reaccreditation.

Fact is, even if reasonable people know that Buhari/Osibanjo is a useless team some fools will still vote for those two terrorist leaders upon presentation of 5,000.

Meanwhile someone will use your card to vote for you in favour of Buhari/Osibanjo.

Had similar experience.
I don't even have anything to show. All i did was to fill a form and upon my turn, they verified with the biometric. Then other documents were processed for me. It took 10mins.

I was at the same Alimosho branch last week by 12 noon and I saw people that collected their numbers and have been waiting there as early as 5 am. I was told by one of the people waiting that they only give number to 70 people a day and that I have to come as early as 4:30 am if I want to receive a number. he said he was number 40.

the op probably got processed that quickly because he has registered before and his name is already in the system. those complaining about delays are mostly people trying to register for the first time or those that want to collect the card itself.

I geh question about transfering from one local government to another.

I did my registration in a local government very far from where reside.

Now, I've gotten my pvc from where I registered.

My question about transfer:

Will the old pvc be taken from me immediately n be replaced with a temporary slip or will I still have the old pvc with me till when the new one is ready for collection.

Reason why the old one is kinda important right now is that it's the only thing I have as a means of ID.

The NIMC slip i have is useless.

That's what they will tell you if you've registered before now. Instead of double registration, you'd be told to print a form from their server to process a new card for you. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Wait till that November before you sing all the praises.

wow. Didnt know this really works, Now i would look to replace my lost PVC to vote PMB Again.
no doubt, lots of us Nigerians are pessimists and cynical when it comes to anything that concerns the Nigerian Government. A lot has changed under PMB in most ministries and government offices.
One thing is certain, Slower and Surely, we will get there.
