It “is vital to enhance the legitimacy of the process that they are preparing for” to make available to Nigerians the entire number of PVCs gathered in states and local governments, according to Fashola.

Checks showed that Professor Mahmood Yakubu, the chairman of the commission, had stated in January of last year that 93,469,008 Nigerians had registered as PVC voters for the general elections of 2023.
