220,000 PVCs still not collected in Anambra, says REC

The Anambra State Resident Electoral Commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Dr. Nkwachukwu Orji, has said no fewer than 220,000 Permanent Voters’ Cards have yet to be collected by the owners in the state.

Orji made the disclosure during a visit to the Obi of Onitsha, Obi Alfred Achebe, lamenting that the level of voter apathy had dropped significantly following the modifications of the services being rendered by the commission.

He explained that the commission had succeeded in restoring the confidence of the electorate, which was evident in the massive turnout of voters in the November 18 governorship election adjudged by many to be free, fair and credible.
