The issue of the registration and distribution of the Permanent Voters Card, PVC, in different parts of the country has been marred with lots of irregularities with many people finding it difficult to get their cards.
However, the Independent National Electoral Commission , INEC, has finally admitted its failure in the distribution of the PVCs nationwide and has apologised particularly to the Lagos State Government for the irregular process. This is because even Governor Babatunde Fashola was unable to get his own PVC.
According to the commission’s high-powered team led by a National Commissioner, Ambassador Lawrence Nwurukwu, he expressed regrets over the irregularities recorded in the distribution of PVCs during a close-door meeting with Governor Babatunde Fashola in Lagos House, Ikeja this week.
The INEC team, which visited the governor, included the state Resident Electoral Commissioner in Lagos, Dr Adekunle Ogunmola, the Chief Press Secretary to the chairman, Mr. Kayode Idowu, Director of ICT, Mr. Chudi Nwafor and Administrative Secretary in Lagos office, Mr Isaac Itegboje.
Lawrence Nwurukwu also used the medium to apologise to all affected registered voters for failing to meet their expectation while urging them to go and re- register between now and the 8th of December.
