Anambra poll: INEC extends PVC collection date for voters
The Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC), has extended the ongoing Permanent Voter Card, or PVC, collection process in Anambra State until November 2 to allow eligible voters additional time to acquire their cards.
INEC’s Director of Voter Education and Publicity, Victoria Eta-Messi, confirmed this in a statement made on Monday.
She noted, “INEC has approved the extension of the ongoing collection of PVC in Anambra from October 29 to November 2.
“The decision was reached at a meeting of the commission held on October 27, following several appeals from citizens and stakeholders requesting additional time to enable eligible voters to collect their cards,” she said
Eta-Messi urged registered voters who have not yet collected their PVCs to use the extended period to do so at the designated collection centres in all 326 registration areas (wards) across Anambra State.
She also stated that the exercise covers people who registered during the state’s most recent Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) period.
