Citizens of the United States of America (U.S) residing in Nigeria can vote in the November 2024 elections.
The U.S Diplomatic Mission Nigeria made the announcement in a statement it shared on its official X account on Monday morning.
“Attention U.S. citizens residing in Nigeria! To vote in the November 2024 elections, all citizens overseas must complete three steps,” it wrote.
“Request a ballot and visit FVAP.gov for instructions. Receive and complete your ballot. Return your ballot.
“You may drop off your completed ballot in a postage-paid envelope at the Consular Section of the U.S. Embassy in Abuja or the Consulate General in Lagos or you may mail it yourself.”
It said voting is one of the fundamental rights as Americans, adding that members of the military, their families and private citizens residing outside the United States can choose to exercise that right from anywhere in the world.
The mission has also directed Americans residing outside of the country to register to vote and request their ballot with the Federal Post Card Application.
