INEC Presents Soft Copies Of Voters’ Register In Osun State

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has published the names of forty eight political parties cleared to contest the September 22 governorship election in Osun state.

The electoral umpire also presented soft copies of voters’ register to the political parties contesting the Osun governorship election.

The presentation was done by Segun Agbaje, the State Resident Electoral Commissioner, at the INEC office in Osogbo.

“As we speak, majority of the non-sensitive materials that would be used for the conduct of the election have been received from INEC headquarters, Abuja, and distributed to INEC offices across the state.

“Furthermore, a total of 1,152,751 PVCs have been collected by their owners out of 1,668,524 received in the state, leaving a balance of 515,773 as at August 17.

“It is important for you to help us to inform the people on the need to collect their PVCs during your campaigns and rallies, because without PVC, nobody would be allowed to vote.” Agbaje said during the presentation.
