The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in Oyo state says it has extended hours of registration in the continuous voter registration exercise from 9am to 5pm daily.
This is just as the commission reiterated that the on-going registration exercise will be suspended from Sunday, 31st of July, 2022 in the state.
In a statement signed by its administrative secretary in Oyo state, Biodun Amosun, registration exercise will now be held every day of the week, including Saturdays and Sundays, until 31st of July, 2022.
He urged those who have just reached the age of eighteen years and other Nigerians who have not registered to visit INEC offices in local government areas.
The statement enjoined all eligible voters who are yet to register to visit various designated INEC offices while those who want to carryout transfer or lodge complaints about defaced PVCs are to go online via cvr-inecnigeria.gov.
The INEC Administrative Secretary appealed to Nigerians to desist from multiple registrations in the remaining two weeks of the exercise, as such amounts to electoral fraud, which is punishable under the law.
