Just In: INEC Extends Collection Of Permanent Voter's Card To March 8, 2015.

The Independent National Electoral Commission has extended, by four weeks, the deadline for collection of Permanent Voter Cards by registered voters.

Collection of Permanent Voter Cards earlier scheduled to end on February 8, 2015 will continue until the 8th of March, 2015.

The extension of PVC collection by the Independent National Electoral commission was announced in a statement signed by its Secretary, Mrs. Augusta Ogakwu.

According to Ogakwu, "The Commission hopes that this extension will finally avail every registered person yet to collect his/her PVC the opportunity to do so in readiness for the general elections".

The presidential election earlier fixed for February 14, 2015 was last week shifted by six-weeks by the commission, with the new date being 28th of March, 2015.
