To ensure that people exercise their civic duties without restrictions, the chairman of Enugu South LGA, Caleb Ani, has urged residents of the council area to participate actively in the ongoing Continuous Voters Registration.
Ani who made the appeal in a statement, said the Permanent Voter Card issued by the Independent National Electoral Commission remained “the most powerful instrument for influencing governance and safeguarding the people’s future”.
According to him, democracy begins with the CVR registration and collection of the PVC as both the people’s voice and their pathway to shaping a collective destiny.
“Your PVC is your power. The road to a better tomorrow begins with CVR registration,” he said.
Mr Ani enjoined all eligible residents, especially first-time voters aged 18, those seeking to replace lost cards, and those yet to be registered in the Independent National Electoral Commission database, to seize this opportunity without delay.
He said, “INEC registration is ongoing here in Enugu South Local Government secretariat from Mondays to Fridays, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily. The process remains free of charge,” he said.
Ani called on community leaders, youth groups, women’s organisations, and civil society groups to intensify grassroots sensitisation campaigns to encourage massive participation.
“Democracy thrives when people participate, and your vote is the key to transformative change,” he said.
The council chairman emphasized that with this mobilisation drive, the council was reinforcing its commitment to inclusive governance, ensuring that every citizen contributed to the deepening of democracy in Nigeria.
