The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has captured a leper colony in Niger State in its ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise.

It explained that the move was in line with its commitment to promoting inclusion in the nation’s electoral process.

INEC, in a tweet on Saturday, shared photos of some registration officers while capturing some electorate at a leper colony in Chanchaga Local Government Area of Niger State.

According to the tweet, the officials were deployed in the community by the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Niger, Professor Samuel Egwu, to conduct the exercise ahead of the general elections in 2023.

In line with its resolve to ensure a hitch-free process and large turnout of voters in the forthcoming elections, INEC began the online pre-registration and physical registration for the CVR in June and July 2021 respectively.
