HUNTERS DISCOVER 320 PVCS INSIDE BUSH

'How hunters discovered 320 PVcs inside Bayelsa bush'

Permanent Voters' Cards(PVCs)

Barely three weeks after over 10,000 Permanent Voters Cards, PVCs were found in a drainage in Rivers State, another 300 have been discovered inside an uncompleted building in Bayelsa State.

The 320 PVCs were stashed in a bag discovered inside an uncompleted building along the AIT/Elebele road in Yenogoa, the Bayelsa State capital by hunters.

The hunters handed over the PVCs to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Wednesday July 27, in Yenagoa, the state capital.

While handing over the cards to INEC, the Commandant of the association, Moses Okanu, disclosed that the items were recovered when his men were combing the bushes and forests on Tuesday around Azikoro and Elebele in the state.

He further stated that the hunters were attracted by a noise in the forest, and upon approaching the uncompleted building, the occupants of the facility fled the scene.

So, we were able to penetrate into the building and what we saw was the abandoned voters’ cards. So knowing full well that these are Federal Government property and the only authority empowered or authorised by law to keep custody of these items is INEC, we have to recover them and decided to bring it to the Commission.

Okop Umobong who received the voters’ card on behalf of the Resident Electoral Commission, Dr Alex Hart, INEC Administrative Secretary, said the Commission will investigate the circumstances that led to the cards being found in the forest.

Man gets to positions of power and authority and bring to bear their inner qualities. Position, as we have it here, is used to do all sorts of things; good and bad. But mostly and vexatiously, position blinds us as we use it to cheat and deny others their rights. Certain men understand that position is an opportunity to etch their names in gold and put such in the same of time. It is exactly fifty years today that the 42nd Deji of Akure, late Oba Agunsoyebioyinbo Ademuagun Adesida 11 joined his ancestors.
