Cevap
The correct chronological order of election administration stages in Nigeria is: 1. Publication of the official Notice of Election by the electoral commission, 2. Conduct of political party primaries and submission of candidate nomination lists, 3. Final publication and certification of the official Register of Voters, 4. Accreditation of registered voters, casting of ballots, and polling unit result collation, 5. Official declaration of election results and issuance of the Certificate of Return.
Electoral administration under the Electoral Act follows a strict sequential order: publishing the legal Notice of Election opens the cycle, allowing political parties to hold primaries and submit candidate lists. Next, the commission cleans and publishes the certified Register of Voters for public verification. On polling day, voter accreditation, secret voting, and vote counting occur. Finally, results are officially declared and a Certificate of Return is issued to the winner.
