In a statement, the CSO expressed concern that the logistics for the distribution of PVCs have been hampered by hiccups in the management of the process.
“In our monitoring of the situation across the nation, we noted multiple challenges which created bottlenecks in the collection process.“INEC’s failure to resolve these issues to date suggests that a sizeable number of voters may not receive their PVCs before the new deadline elapses and thus will be unable to cast their votes.
“Similar trends were noted in other states, including Lagos and Nasarawa states. We, therefore, call INEC’s attention to some of the specific difficulties that several duly registered voters in the Federal Capital Territory have encountered while attempting to obtain their PVCs.“Voters in the Utako Ward of the AMAC LGA have complained of sluggish PVC distribution due to understaffing.
Global Rights added that there have also been complaints about the sorting process, leading to queues, stampedes, and missing PVCs in some areas in the FCT.
