In a video that has now gone viral, an unidentified official of INEC was seen demanding money before issuing the Permanent Voter Cards to their owners., it was observed the incident happened at Emene primary school in Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State where a tall, fair woman, who was said to be an INEC official, speaking partly in the Igbo language, told the people to pay N1,000 each to collect their PVCs.
She said the money was for her transportation to the local government from where they were supposed to pick up their cards. When confronted by some of the people there about the fact that they were not supposed to pay to collect their PVCs, and that ₦1,000 she demanded was high, she became annoyed and arrogantly asked them to go to the local government and collect their voter cards.
I can’t find my card in Enugu, I’ve been going to local government for more than sixth times , the transportation and stress is too much
What are they investigating when the video was everywhere. She was caught on camera and she doesn't care
Good one
Very good
But if they clam she isn't a staff then how did she got hold of those PVCs?
Is it not the one we saw a video of?
I think those people that are involved should be jailed
After how many days and and serious outcry?😢 Anyway, better late than never and I hope something positive comes out of it

Borno Resettled Communities Face PVC Collection, Polling Units Dilemma | Sahara Reportersuhammad Abubakar, a 30-year-old resettled native of Bama, remains determined to elect competent leaders that can end the insurgency that has killed and displaced many people over the years, but he might not be able to make the change as he is yet to collect his voter card. He argued that more than 60 percent of the resettled Borno inhabitants who registered or renewed their cards are yet to collect them. Stories to make the tribalism unreal. I am sure each of them has 2 to 3 PVCs. They'll still collect their PVC and vote the same people that sent them to IDP'S. The greatest weapon by Northern elites against the poor masses is poverty, illiteracy etc. You can't cry more than the bereaved
