Importance Of Collecting PVCs For Imo Gubernatorial Election, As Explained by PDP, AA, And Others....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
On Wednesday, October 11, political parties urged Imo state residents to collect their uncollected Permanent Voters Cards (PVC) and utilize them to bring about change in the upcoming Imo gubernatorial election on November 11. This call came in response to a report by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) stating that there were 134,000 uncollected PVCs in the state.
Salvator Amadi, the state publicity secretary of Action Alliance (AA), expressed that INEC’s practices, including extortion for the release of PVCs, have deterred voters from collecting their cards. He emphasized the need for extensive media sensitization to encourage PVC collection.
Lancelot Obiaku, the state director of new media for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), attributed the low PVC collection to voters’ dissatisfaction with the electoral process due to perceived injustice and malpractice in previous elections. He claimed that as a party, they are not concerned, as they expect to win the gubernatorial election.
Michael Anyanwu, the 2023 deputy director of media and publicity for the Young Progressives Party (YPP), highlighted factors such as apathy and a lack of trust in the electoral process contributing to low PVC collection. He urged INEC to ensure credible and transparent elections and establish a feedback channel for reporting issues related to PVC collection.
Chilos Godsent, the national vice chairman of the southeast for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), stated that the electorate lacks confidence in INEC’s ability to conduct a credible and transparent election. The ADC called on INEC to engage in multi-stakeholder town hall meetings in all 27 local government areas to sensitize voters about the importance of active participation in elections.
The Resident Electoral Commissioner, Sylvia Agu, urged Imolites to collect their PVCs from their respective INEC local government offices and designated collection centers, emphasizing the need for active participation in the election.
