The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said a total of 4,423 new voters have so far been registered in Anambra State within four weeks in the ongoing Continuous Voters Registration (CVR) exercise.
The State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Dr Queen Elizabeth Agwu, disclosed this during a media chat with journalists in Awka, on Wednesday.
Agwu said the exercise is currently ongoing across the 21 local government areas of the state.
She expressed satisfaction over the figures registered so far within the period under review, adding that the exercise is for the upcoming 2027 general elections.

According to her, the success was a result of the collaborative support the Commission is getting from other relevant stakeholders, particularly political parties and the media.
“The Commission under my watch in Anambra State is highly impressed, and we believe that at the end of the ongoing nationwide registration, we are expected to be among the states with a higher number of voters.
“The registration started from January 5th, and it’s expected to end April 17th, 2026,” she said.
Agwu urged the residents aged 18 to come out en masse and register as soon as possible to avoid rushing.
