2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS UPDATE VOLUME 4 FEBRUARY 2015

Election Monitor continues to provide stakeholders of the Nigerian electoral process with high quality data and information germane to understanding and following the 2015 General Elections.

This edition has a primary focus on incidents of pre-election violence and protests that have occurred across the country in the months leading to the 2015 Nigerian General Elections. Protests have been included here because, they signify discontent amongst the electorate for diverse reasons. This is critical because protests are an early warning sign for possible violence and it is important to track as many election related protests as possible. Election Monitor has made assiduous attempts at identifying the incidents of violence and protests that have occurred across the country but certainly not all of such incidents have been covered here. As much as possible the pictures of the incidents have been included as obtained from the various information sources, however it should be noted that some pictures may be a bit horrid so reader discretion should be observed. This edition also showcases the final Permanent Voter Card (PVC) collection rate for each state before the commencement of the 2015 General Elections. Finally, we take a look into the distribution of registration areas/wards and polling units across Senatorial Districts in all the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory.

We hope you will find this Update useful as the 2015 General Elections approach.
