The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says

it has removed names of ineligible persons from the voters’

register.

INEC chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu announced this

at a meeting with political parties at the commission’s

headquarters in Abuja.

Professor Yakubu said the commission received more than

53,000 objections to the register, after which the ineligible

voters were removed.

The INEC boss further emphasized that the commission was

not contemplating a change of date in the conduct of the 2023

General Elections.
