2027: INEC to begin PVC distribution October 8
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced plans to begin distributing Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to eligible registered voters within the next three days.
INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, disclosed this during a strategic engagement meeting with journalists in Abuja.
The exercise will cover voters who recently completed registration, transferred their voting locations or applied for replacement of damaged PVCs.
The commission said the distribution is aimed at ensuring eligible voters receive their cards ahead of the 2027 general elections.
According to INEC, the distribution is part of ongoing preparations to ensure that eligible Nigerians can participate in the electoral process.
He noted that the Commission is strengthening the use of technology to ensure that stolen, lost or compromised voter cards cannot be used by unauthorised persons to interfere with the electoral process.
Prof Amupitan warned political parties and their supporters against disrupting the campaigns, rallies and other activities of rival parties ahead of the 2027 general elections.
