The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has dismissed circulating reports claiming that the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) and the replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) will resume on May 27, 2025.  

Rotimi Oyekanmi, Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, made this clarification on Tuesday night in response to the misinformation. He stated that the Commission has not set a date for the resumption of CVR or PVC replacement.  

“The attention of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been drawn to a misleading report making the rounds that we will resume the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) and replacement of lost Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) on 27th May 2025,” Oyekanmi said.  

He urged the public to disregard the false claims, emphasizing that INEC has yet to make any official announcement regarding the process.
