Monrovia – The National Elections Commission (NEC) of Liberia has raised eyebrows as it appears to be flip-flopping on its stance regarding the detection of underage children participating in the Biometric Voter Registration (BVR) process. In that press statement, the NEC stated that “Several duplicates and underage registrations are being detected, and their voter information deactivated until further investigation. She further urged the public to utilize the upcoming Exhibition of the Provisional Registration Roll (PRR) to substantiate any allegations of underage registration. “We are concerned like everyone else, but at this stage, we consider these reports as suspected cases of underage registration. As Liberia prepares for its upcoming elections, the NEC’s flip-flopping on the issue of underage voter registration has sparked concerns among the public.
