Electoral Offences 2.2 Registration period: The Electoral Commission always specifies by notice in the gazette, the period within which the registration will take place. However, depending on some circumstances which may later arise, the EC may as well review the date that it announced earlier for the exercise. This is followed by media announcements and various forms of notifications, advertisements, awareness-creation and sensitization which are undertaken by the EC and other independent governance institutions like the National Commission for Civic Education(NCCE). The requisite information and voter-education are all well packaged for the benefit of the electorate and other stakeholders in the impending electoral exercise. 2.3 Accessibility to centre: The Commission appoints a registration officer and two assistants to each registration centre. The biometric registration aspect of the entire exercise adds three other officials to the number, making a total of six. 11
