The Permanent Voters Card (PVC) registration exercise in Kano State yesterday witnessed an impressive turn – out of prospective voters.
As early 9 am, people had started trooping to the various polling units, eager to obtain their PVC.
Our correspondent observed that the exercise commenced early in some units, forming long queues, while the lNEC staff had taken positions to commence the issuance of PVC.
In some other polling units, liket Dakata/Kawasaki in the metropolis, as at 1.30 pm, no INEC official had arrived as the people waited endlessly.
While there were sufficient materials, the prospective voters complained that the staff deployed by INEC was not enough to cope with the huge crowd.
At Gegireya polling unit, Yankaba Quarters, one Mallam lbrahim Bello told our reporter that they had been there since 9 am but had not been able to obtain their PVCs as at 1.30 pm simply because there was shortage of officials to cope with the surging crowd.
