Months before Nigeria’s 2027 general election, the Independent National Electoral Commission said it was still waiting for the full release of a substantial budget proposed for the polls.

The commission is nevertheless moving ahead with plans for a mock presidential election. The exercise will test the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, known as BVAS, and the INEC Result Viewing Portal, or IReV, in conditions similar to election day.
