The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has commenced its 2026 recruitment exercise, calling on qualified Nigerians to apply for entry-level vacancies spanning Grade Levels 07, 08, 09, 10 and 12.
According to a recruitment notice published on the commission’s website, the online application portal opened on Monday, July 20, and will remain accessible until Monday, July 27.
INEC said the recruitment drive is designed to enhance its workforce and improve its capacity in key areas such as electoral administration, voter registration, election logistics and data management to support the commission’s constitutional responsibilities.
Prospective applicants are expected to complete their applications online by creating an account on the recruitment portal, filling out the application form and uploading all required documents.
The commission also emphasised that the recruitment process is completely free, warning candidates against providing false information or forged credentials. It stated that anyone found guilty of such acts would be disqualified and could face prosecution.
