The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has advised Nigerians without the Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to stay away from the polling units on Election Day.
INEC National Commissioner Festus Okoye conveyed the commission’s warning while receiving IT facilities from Community Life Project (CLP) and Ford foundation in support of the INEC Citizens Contact Centre (ICCC) yesterday in Abuja.
Okoye, who is the commission’s Chairman of Information and Voter Education Committee, said no any other means of identification would be used on Election Day, other than the PVC.
“As Nigerians go to the polling units on Election Day, we want to point out that it is a mandatory provision of the Electoral Act that every citizen who wants to vote in the coming election must have a PVC.
