 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.

 Trump backs idea to rename ICE to ‘NICE’ in proposed Homeland Security agency rebrand push

President Trump on Sunday endorsed a proposal to rename Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to the National Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a change that would rebrand the agency with the acronym “NICE.”

The idea was first promoted by a conservative influencer last month, who suggested the new name would force critics to repeatedly refer to “NICE agents” in public discourse. Trump publicly embraced the suggestion late Sunday, writing, “GREAT IDEA!!! DO IT,” on social media.

Other conservative voices quickly backed the proposal, urging Homeland Security leadership to pursue the change as well. The push reflects a broader effort among some allies to reframe messaging around immigration enforcement.

Changing the name of a federal agency typically requires congressional approval to amend the law that established it. However, recent administration efforts have tested the boundaries of executive authority, including attempts to rebrand the Department of Defense as the Department of War without formal legislative action.

The proposed ICE rebrand comes as immigration remains a politically sensitive issue and as funding for parts of the Department of Homeland Security remains stalled in Congress. Lawmakers have been divided over broader immigration enforcement funding, with negotiations continuing over competing spending proposals that would determine long-term support for ICE and Border Patrol operations.
