Ekiti guber: Lost, damaged PVCs no longer barrier to voting – Amupitan

Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji has assured voters that lost or damaged Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) will no longer be a barrier to participation in the upcoming gubernatorial election. This assurance comes as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) implements technological reforms designed to streamline election administration and enhance accessibility.

He highlighted that the changes reflect a concerted effort by lawmakers and electoral stakeholders to ensure a smoother and more inclusive voting experience for all Nigerians.
