The Abia State Government has cancelled the month’s clean-up exercise, originally scheduled for Saturday 30th July 2022.
This comes on the heels of the July 31st deadline for the conclusion of the continuous Voters Registration (CVR) exercise being held across states of the Nigerian federation ahead of the forthcoming 2023 general election in the country.
DAILY POST recalls that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced that the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) in Nigeria will end on July 31.
The Abia Government, in a release by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Barrister Chris Ezem, issued to journalists in Umuahia, the state capital on Friday, stated the cancellation of the clean-up/Sanitation exercise is to enable those that are yet to obtain their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) to use the period to do so before the expiration of the deadline.
The press release partly stated, “Government urges all Abians and residents to use this opportunity properly by ensuring that they complete the registration process and obtain their Permanent Voters Cards”.
