The Electoral Commission has officially announced the conclusion of the 2023 Voters Registration Exercise, which ended today at 5:00 pm. The Commission has made it clear that there will be no further extension to the registration period, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the established deadline.
In a statement released earlier today, the Electoral Commission notified the public about the closure of the registration process. However, to accommodate eligible citizens who were already in the queue before the deadline, the Commission has arranged for their registration to take place tomorrow, Tuesday, the 3rd of October, 2023.
This special arrangement will solely apply to individuals who were present in the queue at or before 5:00 pm today, Monday, the 2nd of October, 2023. The Electoral Commission expressed gratitude to the General Public for their cooperation and support throughout the 21-day Voters Registration Exercise.
The 2023 Voters Registration Exercise has been a significant undertaking, aiming to ensure that all eligible citizens exercise their right to vote in the upcoming elections. The Electoral Commission has made extensive efforts to facilitate a smooth registration process, providing numerous registration centers across the country and employing additional staff to manage the influx of applicants.
The Commission has emphasized the importance of voter registration as a fundamental step in the democratic process. By registering to vote, citizens can actively participate in shaping the future of their nation and contributing to the selection of competent leaders who will govern and represent their interests.
As the registration process concludes, the focus will now shift towards other crucial aspects of the electoral process, including voter education, verification of registered voters, and preparation for the upcoming elections. The Electoral Commission remains committed to ensuring a fair, transparent, and inclusive electoral process, upholding the principles of democracy and safeguarding the rights of citizens.
With the closure of the 2023 Voters Registration Exercise, eligible citizens who missed the deadline will have to wait until the next registration period to participate in future elections. The Electoral Commission encourages all eligible individuals who did not register this time to take note of future registration announcements and actively engage in the democratic process.
