North West, South West top INEC final voters list

The Independent National Electoral Commission has released the final list of voters that will cast their ballots in the elections, with the north-west and south-west having the lion’s share of the 93.4 million eligible voters.

The commission’s chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, said the number of registered youths was 37,060,399.

In November 2022, the commission published the preliminary register of voters across the 774 local government areas on its website to enable eligible voters to confirm their details, as well as for Nigerians to report ineligible persons captured in the register.

Yakubu said the commission received more than 53,000 objections to the register, after which the ineligible voters were removed.
