As part of the preparations for the 2015 General Elections, the Commission has demonstrated its commitment to informing stakeholders and the general public through a range of activities, and engagements with different strata of society with the aim of fostering confidence and participation in the continuing effort to build an enduring democratic culture. To increase eligible citizens’ participation in exercising their franchise, polling units within, or very close to the premises of politicians, traditional rulers, religious bodies, state and local authorities, private properties, etc., as well as in open spaces, are relocated to public buildings, preferably public schools. Thus, the publication of the 2015 Polling Unit Directory (updated January 2015) by the Commission is another step towards providing valid information to the stakeholders and the public alike. The Directory lists the Local Government Areas (LGAs) of each State or Area Councils (ACs) of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Registration Areas (RAs) of States or Wards of the FCT, as well as polling units contained therein. This Directory wiII not only help to address the Polling Unit information needs of political parties, developmental partners, Civil Society Organizations, Ministries, Departments, Agencies, the Press and other Stakeholders, but also serve as a reference document for research and information. This publication is also designed to help electoral officials irrespective of where they are deployed to effectively perform their duties. I hope that the Directory will also help to influence and educate election officials in the administration of elections in the country. Prof. Attahiru M. Jega, OFR Chairman Independent National Electoral Commission Federal Republic of Nigeria INEC Nigeria Directory of Polling Units Revised January 2015 Page iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENT In revising the Directory of Polling Units, cognizance has been taken of the relocation of existing polling units from unsuitable and unapproved locations. The decision by the Commission was taken in its efforts to further ensure transparency in the electoral process and provide a level playing field for free and fair elections that are credible and acceptable to all. The Delimitation Division of the Electoral Operations Department has worked very hard, together with the Electoral Operations Departments of each of the thirty-six (36) States and the Federal Capital Territory, to significantly improve the accuracy of this Directory. The Commission would like to express its profound gratitude to the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) as well as the National Elections Commission (NEC) of Liberia for providing technical assistance, through the provision of a specialist in Geographic Information System (GIS) and Data Management, Mr. Archie A.A. Delaney, Sr., who played a major role in the successful completion of this project. The fact that the Directory was generated from the Delimitation Database being constructed is very significant and signals a paradigm shift in the way the Commission undertakes its major activities. Finally, the support of the Commission, especially the Chairman, Prof. Attahiru M. Jega, OFR, as well as the Members of the Electoral Operations and Logistics Committee (EOLC), indeed all other National Commissioners, is highly appreciated. Engr. Dr. Nuru A.
