It is possible that a lot of people may not be able to collect their PVCs (Permanent Voters Card) before election. If INEC really want people to collect their PVCs, they should distribute these cards to registration units instead of asking people to come to their offices. On getting to their office, if care is not taken you'll use 4 days to collect your PVC because of the number of people that are crowded there. I don't know if INEC really wants people to collect their PVCs, I mean, it's somewhat suspicious though. So, INEC should try more, we know they're doing their best but it's not good enough!

Secondly, politicians should stop putting fears on people's minds about insecurity and/or how bloody they think the election may be. That info alone will discourage people from going to the polls, so if they're not going to the polls, what's the essence of collecting their PVC?

The truth is, even if it turns out to be just one person that votes, it will still count accurately.

Thirdly, registration and collection of PVCs should not always be towards elections if you truly want people to participate in the elections.

Lastly, Federal Government should also fund the printing of National Identity Card without prioritizing PVC over NIN. PVCs should only be for elections because if NIN is still in paper format (in the 21st century), people will use their PVCs for so many things like BVN registrations, Bank Account reg, transactions, etc. whereas NIN is supposed to cover that. So, such usage makes the PVC to worn out that people would want to collect a new one adding to the just registered crowd.
