[left][/left]A socio-political group known as Change Coalition of Nigeria has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to allow Nigerians to use temporary voter cards alongside permanent voter cards to exercise their franchise in the coming general elections.
The National Chairman of the CCN, Mr. Abayomi Adegoke, said this while briefing journalists in Osogbo on Tuesday.
He said that many Nigerians would be disenfranchised if the Electoral body insisted that only registered voters with the PVC would be allowed to participate in the poll.
Adegoke said, “We are disappointed with the way INEC is going about the distribution of permanent voter cards. Look at Lagos State, Lagosians are complaining bitterly about the shoddy way the INEC is handling the exercise.
“It is six weeks to the election and millions of registered voters are yet to collect their PVCs. They ( INEC) should allow those who have permanent voter cards to vote and those who have temporary voter cards should also be allowed to vote. This will ensure that no registered voter is disenfranchised.”
Asked to assess the performance of President Goodluck Jonathan since he assumed office, Adegoke said that the president had done his best but his best was not good enough to take Nigeria to the desired place.
Based on this, he asked Jonathan to quit the stage for the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj- Gen. Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.), who he said would change Nigeria for the better.
He scored the President low in areas of security and the economy, saying Jonathan had not handled the security of the nation well.
