North-West Leads Voter Registration Surge as INEC Records 72,274 Physical Registrations in 5 Days

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) reported a total of 72,274 physical voter registrations in five days, with the North-West region leading the registration drive. The data released by INEC showed that the North-West recorded the highest number of physical registrations, surpassing other regions.

The registration activity was temporarily suspended in Anambra State to focus on preparations for the upcoming governorship election. This surge in voter registration highlights the growing public engagement in the electoral process and the commission's commitment to expanding access to voter registration across Nigeria for future elections.
