INEC Announces PVC Collection for Registered Voters in Ondo State
By Iyojo Ameh
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced that the Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) for newly registered voters in Ondo State are ready for collection.
According to a press release signed by Sam Olumekun, National Commissioner and Chairman of the Information and Voter Education Committee, a total of 89,777 new PVCs have been printed.
The collection process will be carried out in two phases.
INEC also confirmed that PVCs from previous voter registrations, which have not yet been collected, will be available at the designated centres during this period.
Registered voters in Ondo State are urged to collect their PVCs in person, as the commission reiterated that collection by proxy will not be allowed. INEC has provided detailed information on the addresses of the Ward and LGA collection centres on its website and social media platforms to assist voters.
In a further effort to simplify the collection process, INEC will paste the register of new voters at each collection centre. Additionally, the entire collection register for new voters has been uploaded to the commission’s website, making it easier for individuals to identify their collection centres and pick up their PVCs seamlessly.
