The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said it is not planning to destroy uncollected permanent voter cards (PVCs) in its custody

“Our attention has been drawn to a newspaper report that the commission is contemplating the destruction of over 6 million uncollected Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) going back to the 2015 voter registration.

“The report is incorrect. At no time did the Commission contemplate the destruction of uncollected PVCs. The public is advised to discountenance the story,” the statement said.
