The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has urged residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to use its digital platforms to confirm their polling units ahead of the Area Council elections scheduled for February 21.
The INEC Administrative Secretary for the FCT, Mrs. Abimbola Oladunjoye, gave the advice in Abuja on Monday, warning voters not to wait until election day before locating their voting points.
According to her, voters who are unsure of their polling unit details can visit voters.inecnigeria.org and enter their information to view their polling unit and directions.
She added that those who know their polling unit name or code but are unsure of its physical location can use the Polling Unit Locator Tool on pula.inecnigeria.org, where they can select the FCT, ward and polling unit to get directions.
Oladunjoye also said voters can use inecnigeria.org/location to access Google Maps directions by inputting polling unit details.
She further noted that INEC will paste the register of voters at every polling unit four to five days before the election to assist residents.
