Registration – Evidence

“A series of delays and false starts undermined the voter registration process. Unable to launch voter registration in January 2006 as planned, INEC eventually began a ‘pilot’ voter registration exercise in the Federal Capital Territory (Abuja) in May.”

“The lack of publicity about the voter registration process caused confusion among prospective voters. INEC rotated machines between offi ces and was not able to operate all registration centers. Many people traveled considerable distances to register, but as more registration centres became operative closer to their homes, some of the same individuals re-registered so as to avoid traveling long distances on Election day. In Nigeria, voters must vote where they have registered. In response to this development, INEC announced it would eliminate double registrations, thereby denying the voter any chance to cast a ballot at all.”
