The display is done in all the 774 local government areas across the country.
A statement earlier released by the commission said,“The display of the register allows for claims and objections and also enables the public to check and verify whether they are duly registered to vote.
“Individuals should check and verify whether their names, photographs and other details appear correctly on the register.
“It allows the public to file any complaint in relation to any necessary correction required of a name or details incorrectly entered into the preliminary register,” the commission stated.
The electoral body explained that after voter registration, there is usually a time for display of preliminary voters register for claims and objections.
“There is also a time for correcting errors in spelling of names, wrongly imputed dates of birth and other data, before the final printing of the Permanent Voter Card (PVC).
“The public is therefore, advised to visit the INEC Area Council Offices in their locations of residence for this,” it added.
