The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has extended, by one hour, the time for Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) in Katsina State.
The INEC’s spokesperson in the state, Aliyu Garba-Adosa, said in a statement on Monday in Katsina that the registration will now end at 5:00 p.m. instead of 4:00 p.m.
“INEC in Katsina State wishes to inform the general public that the Commission, at its meeting held on July 15, has decided that the ongoing CVR exercise will come to an end on July 31, 2022.
“Accordingly, the commission also directs that the period of registration be extended to 5:00 p.m. daily, including Saturdays and Sundays,” he said.
While expressing hope that eligible voters will utilise the development, he said INEC appreciated the people’s interest to register and participate in the electoral process.
