The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has registered 9,324,349 young Nigerians during the 2026 Continuous Voter Registration exercises, ahead of the 2027 general election. INEC Chairman Prof Joash Amupitan revealed this during the investiture of nine new and returning Youth Ambassadors.
