The nationwide Voters Registration exercise being undertaken by the Electoral Commission (EC) has officially ended today, Thursday, August 6.
However, a mop-up exercise will take place between Saturday, August 8 and Sunday, August 9.
The exercise, which started on June 30, was conducted in six phases in about 33,000 registration centres.
Although the Commission had a target of registering 15 million applicants, provisional figures indicate that the target has been exceeded and the figures would likely hit 16.5 million.
The nationwide exercise has been largely peaceful with pockets of violence at some registration centres.
A statement issued by the Electoral Commission (EC) urged all eligible voters to take advantage of the final phase and register to be able to vote in the December 7, 2020 General Election.
