The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said that it was not contemplating the destruction of over six million uncollected Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) going back to the 2015 voter registration.
To this end, the commission described the newspaper report that the Commission was contemplating the six million uncollected PVCs as untrue.
The commission in a post via its verified X handle, therefore called on the public to discountenance the story.
It said: “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.”
