PRESS STATEMENT

Monrovia, 21 May 2023 (NEC): The National Elections Commission (NEC) has
commenced the final process of deduplication and adjudication of voters’
information collected from the 2080 voter registration centers across Liberia
through its Central Management System (CMS), following the completion of
data synchronization from the Phase Two counties.
Several duplicates and underage registrations are being detected, and their
voter information deactivated until further investigation. All ineligible
registrants will be removed and in cases where there is/are alleged criminal
motives, referred to the Ministry of Justice for immediate action.
The Commission will announce the preliminary figures for the number of
persons registered in the coming days.
Meanwhile, the Commission informs the public that the Exhibition of the
Provisional Registration Roll (PRR) will commence on 12 June to 17 June 2023
with all 2080 Voter Registration Centers opening simultaneously across the
country. To ensure that only eligible voters remain on the voters’ roll, it is
important that the general public bring forward all concerns during the
Exhibition exercise. All registered and eligible Liberians will be allowed to access
the first draft of the Voter Registration Roll for verification, inclusion, and
objection to information on the PRR.
The National Elections Commission (NEC) extends gratitude to all electoral
stakeholders, including local and international partners, the Ministry of Justice
and the National Security Agencies, including the Liberia National Police and the
Liberia Immigration Service, owners of properties used by NEC, all permanent
and temporary elections workers and the People of Liberia for their tireless
efforts and love for country demonstrated throughout the BVR process.
