National Orientation Agency has admonished Public Servants and the good people of Ondo State who do not have Permanent Voter Cards to seize the opportunity offered by the public holiday declared by the State government to register at the INEC local government office nearest to them for collection of their PVCs.
In a press release issued from the office of the Ondo State NOA Director Mr Bode Famose, the Agency assured the people of Ondo State of the preparedness of INEC to attend to as many as possible persons visiting the designated centers.
Mr Famose however advised those who have once registered and collected PVCs not to do another registration as it constitutes a punishable offence under the Electoral Act 2010 as amended.
The NOA Director urged those who have lost their PVCs to follow INEC guidelines for redemption of their PVCs instead of doing double registration.
According to him, collection of PVC continues after the temporary stopage of PVCs registration on 31st August 2018, till few days to the 2019 general elections.
The NOA boss appealed to the people to please exercise patience and be orderly in the process of their interaction with the INEC officials.
