The Independent National Electoral Commission has ordered the decentralisation of the on-going distribution of Permanent Voter Cards to Ward levels, in order to enhance access to persons yet to collect their cards.
Before now, the distribution was done at the local government offices of the commission. But distribution of the PVCs will henceforth be at ward level nationwide.
The commission, at its meeting on Thursday, January 8, 2015, resolved that the period for distribution of the cards should be extended. Registered voters who are yet to collect their cards can now do so from 8:30am to 5:30pm daily.
Secretary to the commission, Mrs. Augusta Ogakwu, said in Abuja on Friday that Resident Electoral Commissioners have been mandated to set up effective monitoring strategies and ensure that the specified hours are strictly complied with by relevant INEC staff.
