INEC Refutes Claims of Voter Register Display Failure

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Lagos State has dismissed a media report alleging that the voters' register was not displayed at some registration centres in Alimosho and Shomolu Local Government Areas. INEC described the report as false, confirming that the display of the register was conducted across all 245 Registration Areas, including those in Alimosho and Shomolu.

Esther Emeh, the Head of Voter Education and Publicity, urged the public to disregard the allegation, emphasizing that the exercise was comprehensive and included all registration areas in the state. INEC's clarification aimed to correct what it termed inaccurate information regarding the electoral process.

The commission highlighted the importance of the display for voters to check their registration details and to identify any errors. INEC also called on media organizations to verify information with credible sources to prevent misinformation that could undermine public confidence in the electoral process.
