Dis one na the third and final phase, and e go kick off on Monday, 11th May 2026, come end on Friday, 10th July 2026.

No be small matter o, because last time dem pause am on 17th April 2026 make dem fit arrange their voter list well-well—remove “ghost voters” and settle people wey get complaints. Dem even open the list before make people check their names, shout if anything no correct. Na serious database clean-up, no be play.

Now dem don come back with full chest say everything don set. According to Mohammed Kudu Haruna, wey be chairman of Information and Voter Education Committee, na now be the time wey everybody suppose waka go register—no more “I go do am later” excuse. Because later fit turn never.

Who Suppose Register & Wetin You Fit Do This Time

If you don clock 18 years, congratulations—you don qualify to decide who go lead Nigeria (no pressure 😄). INEC dey call all fresh voters and even people wey miss earlier phases make dem show face this time. No dulling, because opportunity no dey knock door twice… especially for Naija politics.

Even if you don register before, you still get things to settle. Maybe you wan transfer your voting location go your new area, or your PVC don lost like missing socks—INEC say no wahala. You fit replace am or even correct your biodata if dem misspell your name like “Chukwudi” turn “Chukwudiii.”

The sweet part be say you no even need stress yourself too much. You fit start online via their portal, then complete am for any INEC office for your state or local government. So whether na Lagos hustle or village flex, dem don make am flexible for everybody.

Voter List Inspection & INEC Final Assurance

After registration go end, INEC still get another level—dem go display the full voter register from 23rd July to 29th July 2026. Na that time you go fit check if your name dey correct, if your details complete, or if one “mysterious uncle” no just appear for your polling unit.

This exercise no be just formality—na serious chance for Nigerians to help INEC make the register sharp and credible. Because if the list correct, election wahala go reduce small. At least, we go argue about results, not about missing names.

INEC come still reassure everybody say dem don arrange everything for smooth operation. Dem dey beg Nigerians make dem come out, register, and play their part. Because at the end of the day, no be only to complain for Twitter—PVC na your real “remote control” for governance.
