INEC extends PVC distribution in Ogun
It would be recalled that several anomalies were observed in the last two days of the exercise in the state with many complaints from all the 20 local government area of the state.
In a press statement issued Sunday afternoon, signed by the State REC, Mr. Sam Olumekun, copy of which was made available to PM News in Abeokuta, the Commission disclosed that the exercise has been extended by one day, which means the exercise will now end on Monday.
The statement with reference number; INEC/OG/345/VOL.II and dated 9th November, 2014 stated that due to the hitches observed during the first day of the exercise, the exercise therefore has been extended.
It also appealed to the people of the state to remain calm and cooperative, assuring that all eligible voters will obtain their voter's card.
"Sequel to the hitches observed during the first day of the distribution of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) in Ogun state, INEC would like to inform the citizens of Ogun State that the exercise has been extended by one day, i.e it will now end on Monday, 10th November 2014 as against Sunday 9th November 2014.
"The Resident Electoral Commissioner appeals to the eligible voters in the state to be calm, assuring them that any voter whose name appears in the voter register but could not find his or her card should not panic; as their cards shall be provided in due course. They should not re-register during the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise scheduled for 12th-17th November, 2014 as this would amount to double registration.
