Speaking at a news conference in Abuja, INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, revealed that the commission extended the deadline for the collection of the cards across all 326 Registration Areas, and it helped almost every eligible voter obtain their card.
According to him, he is pleased with the positive outcome of the extension, and the impressive collection rate sends a good signal ahead of the Anambra Governorship poll.
He stated that the cards that have not been collected will be safely retrieved and stored at the Central Bank of Nigeria until after the election.
