PVC: Fashola, Wife’s Name Missing At Polling Unit by lalasticlala(m): 5:20am On Nov 29, 2014 |
The names of the number one citizen of Lagos state, Governor Babatunde Fashola and that of his wife, Abimbola and all residents who registered at the governor’s polling unit were missing on the register of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and could not collect their Permanent Voters Card, PVC. The governor, who after arriving at his Ward G3, polling Unit E002, State Junior Secondary School, Surulere, where he had registered with his wife, Dame Abimbola in 2010, did not sight any INEC official at the scene at about 2:00 p.m. The governor, after waiting at the scene for a long time sighted a notice pasted on the entrance of the school, advising residents who had registered at the polling unit to revisit the unit next month for another registration exercise. The notice placed at the gate notified that all those who registered at the polling unit, including Fashola and his wife would not get their PVCs as there was no provision for such. “We regret to inform you that those who registered in this polling unit do not have permanent voters’ cards. Please come back between 3rd and 8th December 2014 for fresh registration,” the notice informed. Fashola however reacted angrily to the fact that his name was missing on INEC’s database, thus denying him and others from collecting their PVCs, saying the umpire body represented the biggest threat to the nation’s democracy. “We have seen that INEC is the biggest threat to our democracy. They set date for the distribution of PVC, the state mobilised its residents for the exercise. We put all machinery in place only for the electoral body to change the date of the exercise. They said that the distribution and registration of voters would be done in 11 councils and not the 20 local governments. “While the 11 had been handled in an unsatisfactory way, now the exercises in nine local governments are not ready. If I the governor of the state cannot vote, it shows what the electoral body had done. They came in the midnight and said that we should all come back and register on 3rd December 3rd, 2014. We registered and voted in that place. And there are evidences to show that,” he decried. According to Fashola, “now, there are questions that must be answered by INEC; was the PVC for those units which they have cancelled printed? And if yes, who have they given them to?” He said one could not wipe datas gathered like that, saying he wanted INEC to know that he still had his temporary voter’s card and that he expected all those who still had theirs to keep them, adding that “INEC registered us and they cannot deregister us because we are still alive.” He said if the electoral body could not provide the PVC, it must allow those who had the temporary cards to vote. “It is disgraceful to say the least. This shows how we organise the affairs of this country. Everything that had happened under Jega’s tenure, it has been characterised by mistakes from his very first election. Promises have been made and broken. It is a disappointment. We will participate in the election whether they like it or not. I feel sad when I visited India and I saw how the country was organising elections for population more than ours without hitches,” he said. source: http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2014/11/28/pvc-fashola-wifes-name-missing-at-polling-unit/ 7 Likes

I voted last elections, but my name is missing too. I'm not stupid enuff not to thumb print well or fill my name wrongly. When it is time to reg, they probably will put it on a weekday, which disenfranchises pple like us that run a 5am - 9pm work. Try provoking a mini election in ur environment ie. Work place, house and see the way pple want him out. It is so clear we have a president that has decided to wage war on the electorates of the state's he will lose. Why are their voters card not missing in bayelsa? Jonathan is losing next year, but if he decides to rig, I can assure u he may be impeached as the country will face a free downfall, and the war he will face from the pple will be disastrous. We don't need a president pple claim has good intentions but no capability to carry it out. #SaiBuhari VoteTHESENATORforHouseofRep2023-AbeokutaSouth Mr. Progressive 74 Likes 1 Share |

omeka: ^^Jega resides in aso rock? This is clearly the fault of the electoral commission. What has the man in aso rock got to do with it? It is a known fact from time immemorial that institutions in this country cannot perform their duties without hitches because we lack the will to do things right. There is always an issue with any process. We hear of students' results missing after sitting for an exam. That is the fault of the man in aso rock I guess. The thing that is wrong is not in aso rock. The problem is the Nigerian mentality and way of doing things anyhow. And what's with the opposition always trying to make us feel that they are being persecuted? 9 Likes |

Inec admitted that the data loss affected about 1.8million voters in Lagos state alone. The question is how does it intend to register all these and produce PVC for them in time for the 2015 elections. 1 Like |

Some media outfits are so sensational in their reportage. INEC had clarified this earlier by stating that the data of some centers are corrupt and that voters from that center will need to register afresh. That incuded the center where Fashola and his wife registered. The Independent National Electoral Commission on Friday failed to distribute Permanent Voter Cards at the Ward G3, State Junior Secondary School, the polling unit where the State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, and his wife, Abimbola, registered. It was learnt that some INEC ad-hoc staff had earlier pasted a notice to notify voters who had registered in the two wards on Itolo Street that they had no PVC. The commission said the voters would have to register afresh at a later date. The notice pasted at the entrance of the school read, “We regret to inform you that those who registered in this polling unit do not have Permanent Voter Cards. Please come back between 3rd and 8th of December 2014 for fresh registration.” Lagos State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Dr. Adekunle Ogunmola, attributed the development to loss of data arising from the crash of their computing system. “Yes, some of the data captured during the registration in 2010 crashed. This was the reason we lost about 1.4 million data for voters. We are embarking on fresh registration for them and others who were unable to register in the 2010 registration.” Fashola had yet to react to the development http://www.punchng.com/news/pvc-inec-says-fashola-others-must-re-register/ 1 Like |
