INEC Launches PVC Collection and Voter Register Display

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has initiated the collection of Permanent Voter Cards (PVC) and the display of the preliminary register of voters across all 44 local government areas of Kano State. This exercise began on Friday, 9 October 2026, as part of INEC's efforts to ensure a credible and accurate voter register for future elections.

The display of the preliminary register allows eligible voters to verify their information and submit claims or objections to rectify any errors, omissions, or discrepancies. The ongoing PVC collection aims to facilitate registered voters who have not yet collected their cards ahead of upcoming elections.

While the exercise is being conducted throughout Kano State, specific details regarding its duration and collection arrangements were not provided. INEC has consistently encouraged eligible voters to engage in voter registration and verification activities to enhance the integrity of the electoral process.
