House of Representatives Urge INEC to Deregister Dead Voters

The House of Representatives has asked the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to develop a system to delete dead voters from the voters register.

This was the resolution of the lawmakers after a motion of urgent national importance by a member, Leke Abejide.

Abejide, who moved the motion, said his late father’s name was seen in the INEC register.

The lawmakers urged the electoral commission to deregister any voter who does not vote in two election cycles.
