Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has distributed the 55,859 permanent voter cards ahead of next month\u2019s governorship election in Ondo State.<\/p>\n

National Commissioner and Chairman of the Information and Voter Education Committee, Sam Olumekun, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Olumekun revealed that the collection of the PVCs will not be shifted to local government offices of the commission.<\/p>\n

According to the statement, for five days, the commission made the PVCs from the last Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) in Ondo State available for collection in all 203 wards across the state.<\/p>\n

The commission, therefore, appealed to the remaining voters to pick up their PVCs from their local government offices, reiterating its policy that no cards would be collected by proxy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe commission is pleased to announce that at the end of the five days, 55,859 cards were personally collected by new registrants and applicants for transfer and replacement of lost or damaged cards as provided by law. This figure represents 62.2% of the 89,777 cards available for collection.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the highest percentage of PVCs collected in five days in Ondo State since the commission introduced the CVR in 2015. A detailed breakdown of the collection by local government areas has been uploaded to our website and social media platforms for public information.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeanwhile, the collection will resume in our 18 local government offices in Ondo State from tomorrow (Wednesday, October 23) to Tuesday, October 29, 2024, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm daily (including the weekend). Detailed information on the locations of our local government offices in Ondo State is already available on our website,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n
