Mr. Ayodele Fayose's promise to reward every youth, between 18 and 21 years, who register newly with N2,000.
Security
operatives at the gate of the commission had a hectic time controlling
the youth, who appeared in a hurry to get the PVC.
Even the repeated appeals by the
Administrative Secretary of the commission in Ekiti, Dr.Muslim Moleke,
that the exercise was continuous could not calm the youth who almost
pulled down the commission's gate.
The government had on Wednesday declared Thursday and Friday public holidays to enable civil servants partake in the exercise.
The governor’s Chief Press
Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, told journalists that the governor only
promised a reward of N2,000 per month to the youths in such category
till June next year when the governorship election would be conducted in
the state.
Speaking at the flag off, the
INEC’s Administrative Secretary in Ekiti, Dr Muslim Moleke, warned
against multiple registration or registration by proxy adding that it
was criminal under Sections 12, 24 and 120 of the Electoral Act.
He said there were 2,000 uncollected PVC with the commission urging those concerned to come for them.
So, if you haven't gotten yours, go get yours now!
