The Independent National Electoral Commission [INEC] has extended the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) till 2019.
The political announced the decision on its Twitter handle on Monday.

“The Commission wishes to inform the public that the ongoing collection of PVCs will not end with the CVR exercise.
“Collection of PVCs will continue until close to the general elections.”
It could be recalled that the Commission has earlier decided to extend the CVR to 31st August 2018.
