INEC to digitize registration

   Irked by the lack of interest exhibited  by Nigerian voters, with regards to the collection of their Permanent Voter Cards, PVC,the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, says it will soon digitize the whole process of registration, transfer or relocation of such cards.

   This was disclosed by the chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, during  an interview with newsmen in Abuja at the weekend.
    He lamented the low rate of  PVC collection across the country, stressing that the monthly returns he continued to receive from the commission’s state offices were not encouraging.
    The chairman  stated that  in some areas, uncollected PVC’s were as large as 400,000, Saying that only 30pieces were collected in some months.

    Prof. Mahmood further said that if digitized, it would improve the process of collection.
