Below is a suggestion for effective INEC registration as seen on Twitter:

Why can't INEC just create a system that will let people register for Voters card themselves with their personal computing device by using BVN or National ID number ❓❔❔❕❗

Those without BVN or NIN should be allowed to use the current process and they should use the informations/data provided to generate a NIN for them. Simple, it's like killing 2birds with one stone.

We really don't have to be stressing ourselves every time for registrations. 😒
