APC mobilises members to participate in INEC continuous voter registration

Nigeria’s governing party,  the All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on its members to take advantage of the ongoing  Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) online Continuous Voter Registration exercise to register and get their Permanent Voters’ Card, PVC.

In a press statement signed by the APC National Secretary, Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Senator John Akpanudoedehe, the party also advised its members to ensure that they complete the process at designated centres.

According to the APC, it is only by getting the PVC that their members can support the party leaders to continue the ongoing efforts of APC governments to make Nigeria better.

“We want to remind members that the Permanent Voters’ Card is the only legal instrument voters can use to elect leaders who can sustain the national ongoing efforts of APC governments at the Federal, State and Local Government Areas to sustain its successes in renewing national infrastructure, transforming agriculture and diversifying the economy.

“APC members across the country should equip themselves with the voters’ cards to enable them to vote in several forthcoming by-elections and other staggering elections culminating in the 2023 general elections.

“New voters can pre-register on the INEC portal,  while those who have registered in the past can access the platform to review their voter registration status. Some of the features on the portal allow registered voters to update their personal information or transfer their voter registration to another polling unit. Registered voters can also request for replacement of damaged or defaced Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVC) on the portal.

“Meanwhile, new voters are only required to fill and upload their forms on the portal after entering their biodata and required documents, after which they are expected to visit an INEC state or local government office to provide their fingerprints before July 19th to complete the registration and obtain their voter’s cards,” APC said.
