Why is the Lagos PVC collection rate so low? Any Lagosians on Nairaland who can shed some light on this or who hasn't been able to collect their PVCs?

Not just Lagos. It seems the SW has the lowest collection rate of all the zones in the country, but 50 and 75%. Upon all the mouth wey dome of them (Tinubu gang) dey make online.

Just see the Ogun rate for goodness sake!!

Is because Inec is working with APC to withhold Igbo people's PVC card and realse that of Yoruba peopl own . I can remember very well when one communication company called a friend of mine asking him his party ,believe me . as he said he is APC member they told him when and where to go and collect his PVC card. That's is the reason why lagos distribution is been very down and sllow . APC has currupt all the inec workers in the state. Jega must go.

Any INEC worker who does this should be arrested and prosecuted.
