The electoral body disclosed this on its verified Twitter page, urging Nigerians to report names of dead persons found on the register.
INEC added that voters register will be made available as from 6th till 12th November.
The tweet read: “As part of the ongoing preparations for the 2019 General Elections, I wish to announce in advance that the register of voters for each polling unit will be displayed at the polling units nationwide for one week from 6th – 12th November 2018 for claims and objections.
“The Commission will also appreciate the assistance of citizens in identifying deceased persons on the register so that such names can be nulled from our record. It is also an opportunity to correct misspellings of personal details such as names, age, and gender.
“Ownership of the register by citizens and their involvement in cleaning it up is crucial to our electoral process. I urge citizens to help the Commission during the display. Full details of the procedure for collecting citizens observations will be released later.”
