The INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner in Lagos state, Mr Olusegun Agbaje disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday.
“The total number of registered voters in Lagos state before the commencement of the ongoing CVR is 6,570,291, and if we add the new registrants, we have about seven million registered voters,” Agbaje said. He assured that, though the commission could not capture everybody, those who presented themselves for registration would not be denied.
He said the commission had to stop the CVR on July 31, so as to clean up the voter register which he described as vital in the credibility of elections. He said INEC would carry out other activities such as the display of voter register for claims and objections, robust cleaning of the register to remove all double or multiple registrants, printing of cards, distribution to states for onward collection by the people.
