This is coming after an online report claimed that the electoral commission wanted to destroy six million uncollected PVCs.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has clarified that it has no plans to destroy uncollected permanent voter cards (PVCs).
This is coming after an online report claimed that the electoral commission wanted to destroy six million uncollected PVCs.
In a statement released on Sunday, January 5, the electoral body described the report as “false” and advised members of the public to ignore it.
“Our attention has been drawn to a newspaper report that the Commission is contemplating the destruction of over six million uncollected Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) going back to the 2015 voter registration.
The report is incorrect. At no time did the Commission contemplate the destruction of uncollected PVCs. The public is advised to discountenance the story.”
