Malam Attahiru Madami, the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Kwara, says the commission has received some sensitive materials from headquarters for the 2023 general elections.
In an interview with Newsmen on Tuesday in Ilorin, Attahiru confirmed this.
He stated that sensitive materials received from the headquarters, including 2,887 cubicles and BVAS, are secure.
He also stated that non-sensitive materials such as markers, mats, and toiletries had been delivered.
He went on to say that the commission had received the last batch of Kwara Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) and that officials had sorted them for distribution to the state's 16 local government areas for collection.
As a result, he urged the public to collect PVCs in their respective local governments from now until January 22, 2023, which is the closing date.
The REC said that the recruitment of adhoc staff is ongoing and list of successful candidates that applied online so far have been compiled for training.
“In the area of PVC collection we have organised ourselves in such a way that it is easy to collect.
“We don’t allow collection of PVC by proxy.
“Electoral Officers and Assistant Electoral Operation Admin have been rejigged from one local government to another to make the work effective,” he added.
