 The credibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) voters’ register has come under intense scrutiny ahead of the 2027 general elections, following revelations by INEC Chairman Professor Joash Amupitan that names of deceased persons remain on the register. Amupitan disclosed that names of voters who died as far back as 15 years ago are still listed, a situation critics say could undermine the integrity of the 2027 polls and lead to significant financial waste through the printing of excess ballot papers and other election logistics. The INEC chairman made the revelation while receiving the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Abisoye Coker-Odusote, and her management team during a courtesy visit in Abuja on Wednesday.

HELEN MIRREN REVEALS THE 'LITTLE CHANGES' THAT HAVE HELPED HER 'EMBRACE AGEING' AS SHE APPROACHES 80.(PHOTO).


 Helen Mirren reveals the 'little changes' that have helped her 'embrace ageing' as she approaches 80


Dame Helen Mirren is using her platform to encourage people in midlife to adopt small, sustainable lifestyle habits that can make a big difference later on. 


Partnering with Age UK’s Act Now, Age Better campaign, she explained that embracing ageing rather than fearing it has been key for her. 


Simple practices like walking, yoga, and maintaining a positive outlook have helped her stay active, continue working, and avoid major health complications. 


She emphasized that ageing inevitably comes with challenges, but preparing early can help preserve independence.


Age UK’s campaign highlights how even modest amounts of exercise can lower risks of dementia, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes, while also improving balance and overall wellbeing. 


The charity compares regular movement to “paying into a physical pension plan,” stressing that daily habits play as important a role as genetics in how we age. 


Their survey found that nearly half of adults aged 50 to 65 feel they don’t exercise enough, with health issues, lack of fitness, and busy schedules cited as barriers. 


That’s why the focus is on manageable routines like short walks or yoga sessions that fit into everyday life.


Mirren’s own routine gained attention when her 12-minute workout, originally developed by the Royal Canadian Air Force, went viral online. She insists it’s never too late to start, and that even small steps can make a meaningful difference. 


Age UK’s chief executive, Paul Farmer, echoed this, noting that physical activity in any form supports both mental and physical health. 


The message is clear: incorporating regular movement into daily life is one of the best investments we can make to sustain independence and wellbeing as we grow older.
