“It is our responsibility to use our privilege and opportunity to lift fellow citizens wherever we can and to hold the government accountable as loudly as we can, all the time.

”

- MI Abaga

(Nigerian rapper and record producer)

Dear Active Citizen,

Nigerian youths have the opportunity to use their voting power to guide this nation towards a better future. INEC added

9.5 million

new voters to the

84 million

it had in 2019. What’s more intriguing is that

76.56%

of these new registrants are young people. Young people should not just remain as statistics for voter registration, they must pick up their PVCs and come out to vote on election day!

This Year, No Excuses, Vote!

As part of activities lined up as we countdown to the 2023 general elections,

EiE Nigeria

in partnership with

TASCK

, hosted

Mr Muyiwa Yusuf

,

Head of ICT, INEC Lagos

and

Mr Obo Effanga

,

INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Edo State

on #EiESpaces.

The conversation was moderated by Rinu Oduala.

The program afforded citizens the opportunity to ask the INEC officials questions on the ongoing PVC collection and get answers.

From January 16th, the exercise will revert to the INEC Local Government Offices until January 22nd.
