Voter reg extention: Get your PVC now, Ohuabunwa begs constituents
By Steve Oko
Senator Mao Ohuabunwa has urged eligible voters in his Abia North who do not yet have voter’s card to take advantage of the extension of deadline for voter registration to acquire their Permanent Voter Card, PVC.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had extended the deadline for the on-going Continuous Voter Registration, CVR, it earlier scheduled for June 30 to October.
Senator Ohuabunwa who spoke on the heels of the extension, commended INEC for heeding the pleas by members of the public to extend the exercise.
He, therefore, called on every eligible voter in Abia North who does not yet have the voter’s card not to fail to acquire the vital document before the expiration of the new deadline.
The former Leader, ECOWAS Parliament reminded his constituents that by the passage of the new Electoral Act into Law, votes would henceforth, begin to count in the country.
Sen. Ohuabunwa who declared that the era of vote ringing was over, urged the people to get their PVCs ready ahead of the 2023 elections which they would use to vote out incompetent leaders.
The former Senate Committee Chairman on Primary Health Care and Communicable Diseases urged Nigerians not to loose hope in the country but to get ready to use their PVCs to effect the desired changes in the country in 2023.
He expressed optimism that Abia North would be heard again from 2033.
