2023 - what happened in Rivers
In the February 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi recorded 175,071 votes in Rivers, drawn from 869,575 accredited voters at 6,866 polling units. Turnout - at 24.6% - reflected the same nationwide pattern of voter suppression, BVAS hiccups, and last-mile logistics failures that INEC has since been pushed to address ahead of 2027.
The 2027 push in Rivers starts with three priorities: getting first-time voters onto the register, training agents at every polling unit, and ensuring results upload from BVAS to the IReV portal in real time. Your support powers all three.
