INEC Raises the Alarm over Fake CVR Online Portal

By Chuks Okocha

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has raised the alarm over a fake Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) registration portal in circulation.

The National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Mr. Festus Okoye, in a statement yesterday said the attention of the Commission was drawn to a post, which is currently being circulated on social media, about a website for INEC voter registration which is different from the INEC CVR Portal.

Mr. Okoye revealed the fake portal as https://register.inec-pvc.online/ with shortened URL as https://bit.ly/INEC-PvcReg2021.

“INEC wishes to totally disassociate itself from this website and any activity carried out on it.

“The Commission states that it has not accredited any agency or organisation to capture details of intending voters on its behalf.

“The general public is hereby informed that the INEC Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) online portal remains https://cvr.inecnigeria.org,” Okoye said.
