Delta State governor, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure that no Nigerian was disenfranchised in the forthcoming elections.

Governor Uduaghan, who stated this when the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) national vice chairman, South- South zone, Dr Caro Ojugboh and the zonal executive members visited him in Asaba on Monday, said that there were still  many Nigerians with valid temporary voters’ cards (TVC) who had not been able to collect their permanent voter cards (PVCs).

“There are still many citizens of the state who have not been able to collect their PVCs, they have gone to INEC offices, filled forms, sent SMS but INEC has not brought the cards from Abuja. Nobody should be disenfranchised from taking part in the elections due to no fault of theirs,” he stated, adding: “INEC should do something about it, so that we do not have issues that will affect the elections.”

Governor Uduaghan called for unity and cohesion among the party members, especially at the unit level, to ensure massive victory for the party in the elections.

While assuring the zonal executive members of victory for the party in the elections in the state, the Governor disclosed that the state government and state party executives had embarked on massive grassroots mobilisation and sensitisation campaigns at the wards and local government levels.
