Amupitan stressed that the updated guidelines reflect the recently enacted Electoral Act 2026, warning that political stakeholders must adapt to the evolving framework to ensure credible elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">INEC outlined several key preparatory steps ahead of the elections:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Continuous Voter Registration (CVR): Online pre-registration begins August 18, 2025, with in-person registration starting August 25, 2025, allowing Nigerians to register or update voter details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Voter Register Revalidation: A nationwide audit will remove duplicate entries and deceased persons to strengthen the integrity of the register.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Technology Integration: Discussions continue over real-time electronic transmission of results to INEC\u2019s IReV portal, a move civil society groups advocate to curb electoral manipulation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The announcement comes amid growing political activity. President Bola Tinubu has secured the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) endorsement for a second term, while opposition figures, including Atiku Abubakar, Rotimi Amaechi, and Peter Obi, are reportedly exploring a coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to mount a unified challenge. INEC\u2019s efforts aim to ensure that these contests unfold under a transparent, accountable, and legally sound framework.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Tuesday hosted a high-level meeting with leaders of Nigeria\u2019s political parties at its Abuja headquarters to present and deliberate on newly drafted electoral guidelines for the 2027 general elections.
