The Electoral Commission has started a nationwide exercise to verify particulars of voters on the National Voters’ Register using village (LC 1) Councils.

According to the Commission, the purpose of the verification exercise is to enable members of the particular village scrutinise their respective Register and identify people who are not eligible to be on the Voters’ Register for their village, for example, the dead and those who left the area.

Voters will also be able to confirm their particulars on the Voters’ Register.
