ADC-PCC Demands Transparency from INEC Before PVC Collection

The Presidential Campaign Council (ADC-PCC) has issued demands for greater transparency from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ahead of the Permanent Voter Card (PVC) collection starting on October 9. In a statement signed by Kola Ologbondiyan, the council warned INEC against actions that could favor the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

They stressed that the credibility of the electoral process hinges on INEC's neutrality and transparency. The ADC-PCC expressed concerns over bureaucratic delays at PVC collection centers, particularly in opposition strongholds, and insisted that the actual number of PVCs collected should be prioritized over registration figures.

They called for INEC to decentralize PVC collection, extend collection hours, and utilize technology for notifications. The ADC-PCC demanded strict adherence to electoral laws and transparency throughout the electoral process, urging INEC to resist any influence from the APC.
