Permanent voters card also known as the PVC is our tool for causing a genuine change in the incoming 2019 election.
In preparations towards the upcoming election exercise, Nigerians especially the youths are encouraged to get one.
Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) is an exercise meant for the registration of citizens who turned 18 years of age after the last registration exercise; or those who for one reason or another could not register in the previous exercises.
I was reluctant to make mine in the year 2015, but now i understand better that my PVC is my RIGHT. The transformation i desire will not appear from no where if i don't go out to vote and i can't vote without a PVC.
It is important for adults i.e those who are 18 years and above to register because the electoral law specifies that only those whose names are in the voters list are qualified to vote during elections. In other words, whoever intends to exercise his or her civic rights on Election Day must register as a voter. Then he or she will be able to vote for candidates for elective positions.
In allignment to this, i went to register and collect my PVC at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) HQ, at Aba Road, Port Harcourt and just like expected i was not the only one anticipating for such, the crowd was much.
I stayed from 10am-3pm, and finally i got my card, the wait was worth it, because it can't be compared to bad governance for 4years and definitely a second tenure for an additional 4 years.
To have your voice heard, i will encourage you to get your permanent voters card.
It is not enough to just get your card, it is necessary to be informed and unbiased in your voting, we have gone past the era of favouritism.
Vote because you believe in the vision of the candidate and they represent your interest not because of ethnicity or religion.
From the Presidential election down to the governorship election let's vote right .
Thanks for reading, from the heart of Port Harcourt, am
