The Peoples Democratic Party has accused Governor Yahaya Bello of purchasing Permanent Voter Cards from registered voters in Kogi State for N5000 each ahead of the November 16 governorship election.

Adejoh-Audu stated that the N5000 is being paid to the poor and indigent communities as “loan” in exchange for their PVCs as “collateral”. “The PVC stolen from the people using this decoy will be given to rogue elements to use in voting or to compromised ad-hoc electoral staff to use in hiking accreditation figures in polling units with the ultimate aim of writing results”, the campaign organisation stated.

It knocked the state government for allegedly inventing and devising means of swindling the people of their right to determine who governs them.
