Five steps

Your checklist

  1. 1
    Confirm you are registered

    More than 103 million Nigerians are on INEC’s register after continuous voter registration ran in three phases between August 2025 and July 2026. If you are not sure your name is on it, check with INEC; its portal shows what is open now.

  2. 2
    Collect your permanent voter card

    Nationwide collection began on 9 October 2026. Collect your card from your local government INEC office. You must present your card at your polling unit.

  3. 3
    Find your polling unit

    Your polling unit is assigned when you register. Confirm it with INEC. Ika North East has 238 polling units across 14 wards, and Ika South has 12 wards. You vote only at the unit where you are registered.

  4. 4
    Plan your day

    Know where your unit is, how you will get there and who is going with you. Go early, stay calm and respect the process.

  5. 5
    Protect your vote and your neighbour’s

    Selling your vote or your card is an offence. No gift on this site is tied to your vote, and the Academy and the Help Desk are open to everyone.

The campaign does not run the register and is not INEC. Always confirm dates and your polling unit with INEC.
