Nigerians’ voter turnout proves strong faith in the electoral process, despite criticism.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says the surge in Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), especially among youths, shows Nigerians still trust the system. Since online pre-registration began on August 18, over 5.3 million people have registered, with nearly 765,000 completing in-person biometric verification. INEC highlights this record pace as unmatched in Africa within a month. The 2023 general elections reflected progress with diverse party representation across all government levels, affirming growing democratic maturity. INEC dismisses claims of lost confidence as baseless, urging citizens to continue participating actively.
