The Osun state Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of deliberately refusing to release Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to eligible voters across the state.

The Governorship Campaign Council of the party stated this in reaction to the revelation made on Monday by the Osun INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Professor AbdulGaniy Olayinka Raji, revealing that there are more than 600,000 unclaimed PVCs yet to be collected in Osun State.

Speaking in Osogbo, on Thursday, Diran Odeyemi, the Chairman, Media and Publicity Committee of the Senator Ademola Adeleke Campaign Council said: “At a time the national headquarters of the electoral commission (INEC) is advocating for PVC collection, some INEC officials in Osun State have become tools for political partisanship, working and acting like a department of the ruling party.

“The odious act of bias within the state INEC has also extended to shameful open extortion of voters. They demand monetary settlement before performing their statutory responsibilities.

“We warn INEC and call the attention of security agencies and civil societies to act in ways to douse the increasing tension in our local communities. Anger and discontent are building up across the local governments. Our people are warming up to resist any evil attempt to deny them their constitutional right to elect their preferred Governor on July 16th.

“The campaign council notes that report of selective release of PVCs is unacceptable and any plot to disenfranchise prospective voters ahead of the July 16th governorship election will not sit well with Osun state voters and citizens. We warn INEC to take immediate corrective measures to avoid an explosion from the current build-up of tension across the state.

“Our party is a peaceful organisation that believes in one man one vote. We premise the expected victory of our candidate, Senator Ademola Adeleke on the will of the Osun people, not on any rigging, scheming or violent machinations. We call on Nigerians to hold INEC and APC responsible for any breakdown of law and order in view of the current disenfranchisement agenda,”
