As at Monday, 23rd June 2025, the Commission has received letters of intent from 110 associations that wish to register as political parties. We are dilligently processing the requests in line with the procedure outlined in the law as well as our Regulations and Guidelines. We have acknowledged all requests received so far except six of them received recently which will be done before the end of the week. For emphasis, I wish to inform Nigerians, particularly those interested in registering new political parties, that the handbook containing the Regulations and Guidelinesfor Political Parties 2022is already available on the Commission’s website.
8.Meanwhile, the Commission is today releasing the full list of the 110 associations seeking registration as political parties indicating their proposed names, acronyms, addresses and the names of their protem Chairmen and Secretaries. For transparency and public information, the list will be uploaded to our website and social media platforms shortly while hard copies are included in your folders for this meeting.
9.I cannot conclude my Remarks without briefing you on the conduct of outstanding bye-elections and the resumption of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR). I am glad to announce that the Commission is now in a position to conduct the bye-elections and to resume the nationwide CVR. The Commission met yesterday and we are finalising the details of the two activities which will be made public in the next 24 hours. As usual we look forward to your support.
