Three days to the presidential and National Assembly election, a total of 153,185 Permanent Voter Cards for registered voters in Ogun State are still being expected on Tuesday.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner, Independent National Electoral Commission in the state, Chief Timothy Ibitoye, confirmed this in a telephone interview with our correspondent.

He said,”We are still expecting the balance of 153,185 PVCs for the state are yet to be collected from Abuja.

“Meanwhile, our head of Information Communication Technology is in Abuja and we are expecting him with the remaining PVCs today or tomorrow(Wednesday).

“You know, the chairman has said the collection of PVCs has been extended till Wednesday.

The total registered voters in the state are 1,795,794, while the total number received from Abuja so far is 1,642,607.

The total number distributed is 1,136,003, and the number that remained uncollected is 506,604.

The percentage recorded on the number of PVCs collected based on the number received is 69 per cent, while the percentage recorded on PVCs collected based on registered voters is 63.3 per cent.


The state governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, had condemned the piecemeal nature in which PVCs were released to the state by INEC.

He also alleged that over 600,000 ‘strange’ PVCs, brought to the state by the commission, did not belong to the people of the state.

GEJ everywhere you go.....GEJ till 2019

The North PVC where their is war, no problem, all delivered and all distributed.


APC and Jega have already rigged the election. U go fear for Jega.

With this scenario being played out in Ogun state, who is loosing more because APC has not said anything about this shortfall from INEC.




APC has a grand plan to rig this election.

Calculia:

APC and Jega have already rigged the election. U go fear for Jega.

Delivered to who??

people that have been displaced to middle belt and cameroun
Someone called from BORNU saying nobody in his LG has PVC.

Those PVC'S are in someone's custody.
On election day, they will bring it out and thumb print APC.

As I speak to you about 1MILLION nigeriens and Benin rep have PVC, don't forget the Northern Elders forum donated machines for registration in the North and the purported increase in polling units in the North by Jega.

God pass them
Let God's will be done.

Meanwhile, 2. 3 Million lagosians don't have PVC and APC is not complaining

On a serious note OJUKWU WAS RIGHT.
there is no country like Nigeria, we are deceiving ourselves.

Why have the North collected PVC and South still waiting for delivery? something is going down in inec between jega and apc. lalasticlala election time FP!

Buhari will still win. Vote change

Please let's note this down so we will know when INEC announces results that are outrageous compared to this Collection stats.

Jega said INEC was ready and yet most of the pVCs are yet to be shared and you wonder.
I don't know what his plans are, but GEJ should be careful.

But Jega was ready by February 14th



So Adonbilivit!

Nothing to fear. Elections must hold march 28th

Kilode iz too much.

What happened to those who never collect.

No matter how many times they extend collection of PVC, we can't all have it. My PVC is in Kwara state presently & I can't go there just to collect it...... After all, I still won't be able to vote

That's "disenfranchise" in action

APC or PDP fault...

Gej will win this election and APC will be put to shame now.

wakacome:
Please stop talking nonsense!!!,governor ibikunle amosun who is an APC governor was the first to inform inec about how alot of people were not been able to collect their pvc's............the inec you PDP members were praising at 2011 suddenly now look like a devil to you people because it is obvious goodluck jonathan was going to loose the election because most nigerians are tired of this clueless government



Wakacome

Must you play politics with every issue in nigeria??Let me shock you!!!ogun state is a 70%APC state and 30% for PDP, so if many people in ogun are not able to collect their pvc it means that it is PDP that is even trying to rig in ogun state since they know they will loose in ogun state....





Wakacome

gibberish from a known tout

And INEC has been ready before 14th February, 2015.

INEC is not ready for the elections.
