The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Imo State has revealed that over 300,000 Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) are yet to be uncollected in the 27 local government areas.
The Commission’s Public Relations Officer, Dr. Chinenye Chijioke-Osuji, disclosed this through a statement issued in Owerri.
She urged residents of the State to pick their PVCs, which will enable them vote in the coming general election.
The Commission appealed to the citizens to take advantage of the ongoing display of the preliminary register of voters to crosscheck the register and make their claims and objections where necessary, saying this would enable INEC to produce a clean register for the elections.
“INEC in Imo State craves the indulgence of the citizens, please, as this is a civic responsibility we owe ourselves,” the statement said.
