The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says over 95,000 Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) remain uncollected in Plateau State, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The commission also said it was making arrangements to enable internally displaced persons (IDPs) in nine local government areas affected by communal conflicts and displacement to participate in the elections.
The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Plateau, Sam Egwu, disclosed this on Wednesday in Jos at a readiness assessment meeting with political parties, civil society organisations and other stakeholders.
Mr Egwu urged political parties and other stakeholders to intensify voter mobilisation and public enlightenment campaigns to encourage eligible voters to collect their PVCs.
“We have over 90,000 permanent voter cards uncollected — in fact, about 95,000,” Mr Egwu said.
