VOTERS REGISTRATION: GOVERNOR IFEANYI OKOWA DECLARES THURSDAY 16 AND FRIDAY 17 PUBLIC HOLIDAY

DELTA State Government has declared today Thursday 16th and tomorrow Friday 17th as work-free days to enable public servants participate fully in the ongoing continuous voters registration exercise.

In a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Mr. Festus Ovie Agas, he urged all public officers, who have not registered before now, to take advantage of the work-free days to do so and ensure they are not disenfranchised.

He urged that public servants that are yet to collect their permanent voter’s cards (PVCs) take advantage of this period to do so “and conclude this important aspect of the nation’s political process.”
