Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Governor of Lagos State, South-West, Nigeria has urged qualified residents of the state to pick up their PVCs from the various INEC offices in their localities.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Governor made the appeal on Monday when he visited the INEC office in the Sura area of Lagos Island to pick up his reprinted PVC alongside his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, and some of his cabinet members.
Sanwo-Olu said “Today, INEC officially started the collection of PVCs and because I did a re-designation of my address of where I was and where I am now, I had to move my polling unit.”
“I am here to demonstrate to all our citizens that I have complied. I have come to pick up my reprinted Voter’s Card and I want to enjoin everyone to use this opportunity to go out and pick their PVCs.”
The Independent National Electoral Commission on Monday started the Nationwide distribution of Permanent Voter Cards in all 774 of the commission’s local government offices.
