PVC Better Than US Voter Card Says US Ambassador- Punch by zikclassiq(m): 5:06am On Mar 30, 2015
The Ambassador of the United States to Nigeria,
Mr. James Entwistle, has applauded the decision
of the Independent National Electoral
Commission to use the Permanent Voter Card in
the general elections which commenced on
Saturday.
The ambassador, who spoke with journalists at
the International Conference Centre, venue of
the National Collation Centre of the election
results, on Sunday said Nigeria’s PVC involved
superior technology which his state of Virginia in
the US needed to copy.
He said, “I am very impressed by the decision of
INEC to use technology in this election. The
Permanent Voter Cards are very high-tech.
“They are more high tech than my voter card
from the state of Virginia in the US. My voter
card does not have biometric. It does not have
my fingerprint. The high-tech gives the process
more integrity.
“I congratulate INEC on taking the part of High-
tech. I think we need to come and study it so
that we can use it in my country.”
The ambassador expressed hope that INEC
would address the challenges experienced in the
use of card readers and move forward.
Entwistle, who said he monitored the elections in
Abuja, expressed satisfaction over the patience
and dedication of Nigerians to the smooth
conduct of the exercise.
He said, “I was extremely impressed. On
Saturday, I went to number of places in the FCT.
Every place I went, I was impressed by the
patience and dedication of the Nigerian voter. I
found that inspirational.”
Entwistle further said Nigerians had reminded
the world of how beautiful democracy was.
He said the expectation of the American
government “is that the Nigerian people will win”.
He added that his country’s government would
be willing to work with anybody who emerged as
winner of the presidential election.
He said, “I mean they (the people) will get what
they want which of course is a transparent,
credible and non-violent election. We look
forward to working with whatever government
emerges from the election.”
