             Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC) has announced the extension of the distribution and collection of the Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to March 22.

          The distribution was initially scheduled to end today, but cries from Governor Ibikunle Amosun as major cities in Ogun state are still lagging behind, has necessitated the extension to about one week before the March 28 presidential election.

            Kayode Idowu, chief press secretary to the INEC chairman, said:

“This latest extension offers the last opportunity for duly registered persons to collect their PVCs before the general election scheduled for March 28 and April 11, 2015,”

He further said, “all registered persons that are yet to collect their PVCs should use this last opportunity in doing so, in order to participate in the forthcoming general election”.
