PVC HOARDING: PDP WARNS INEC NOT TO SET OSUN ON FIRE*

Osun State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned in strong terms, the clear connivance of the Independent National Electoral Commission with the ruling All Progressives Congress to deny eligible voters in the state their rights to vote by withholding their permanent voter's cards.(PVC).

The PDP warns on the very dangerous implications of INEC causing the good people of the State unnecessary frustration on their inalienable rights to freely choose who lead them in the state.

According to a statement by the Caretaker Committee chairman of the party in Osun State on Friday, the PDP said it has been inundated with several SOS calls from almost all parts of the state on the consistently similar allegations of inec denying prospective voters their PVC.

More grievous is the efforts by INEC releasing voter cards in bulk to some assigned APC leaders in different local governments and communities which are in turn warehoused by such leaders for onward distribution to their members and or mercenary voters the Apc are planning to ship to Osun State for the purpose of the election.

Dr Akindele said several reports with the PDP from diferent communities and electoral wards in the state suggest that while INEC has been reluctant to release PVC to thousands of registered voters, some of them were being directed by Apc agents hanging around the collection centers designated by INEC, to see one political leader or the other for their PVC. One wonders when APC became part of INEC in whose custody sensitive electoral materials are warehoused.

He described the current gale of excuses by INEC field officials in refusing residents of the state their PVCs as strange and utterly worrisome, after the state Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mr Abduganiyu Olayinka Raji had gone on national radio announcing available of the cards and even, with ample time to sort same before embarking on distribution across the local governments.

Similarly, Osun PDP has warned the Independent National Electoral Commission to perish the attempts to embark on secret voters registration with the All Progressive Congress to inflate the current figure on the current voters register in other to augment or make up for perceived APC's electoral deficits.

Osun PDP reminds INEC that the party and indeed all political parties in Osun State are already in possession of current numbers on the voter register in each of the 3,763 polling units in the state and it will be suicidal for the election management body to allow itself to be forced into such a dangerous mission with APC.

"Osun as at today is too tensed to toy with by any agency or institution of government and it will be too unfortunate for INEC to make itself available as willing tool to test people's resolve on the July 16 governorship election in the state"

"History will no doubt, not bee too kind to INEC on any crisis erupting from careless handling of election matters by a mere election umpire in a state. If Osun State is not bedeviled with ethnic or communal crisis, igniting such on the alter of desperation of one man will be carelessness taken too far" the PDP warned.

Osun PDP therefore called on the people of the state not to give in to the fraudulent antics of APC, but instead troop out to their various wards and local governments designated by INEC for PVC distribution, to collect their cards without minding frustration tactics of INEC officials some of whom have clearly been polluted by Apc, to deny them of the only weapon of supreme decision on electoral matters.
