APC LAUNCHES 30-DAY PVC MOBILISATION CAMPAIGN AHEAD OF 2027 ELECTIONS
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has launched a 30-day Permanent Voter Card (PVC) mobilisation campaign as part of efforts to encourage voter registration and strengthen its grassroots presence ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The campaign is aimed at sensitising eligible Nigerians on the importance of obtaining their PVCs and participating in the electoral process.
The party is expected to use its grassroots structures, supporters and mobilisation networks to reach communities and encourage citizens who are yet to register to take the necessary steps to become eligible voters.
The initiative also seeks to draw attention to the importance of voter participation in determining political leadership and shaping the country's future.
PVC mobilisation has become an important part of political preparations ahead of elections, as parties seek to increase awareness about voter registration and encourage supporters to participate in the process.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is responsible for voter registration and the management of Nigeria's electoral register. Eligible citizens are required to complete the registration process and obtain their voter cards in line with the commission's guidelines.
The APC's 30-day campaign comes as political activities gradually intensify ahead of the 2027 elections, with parties beginning to strengthen their structures and engage potential voters.
The success of the exercise will depend on the party's ability to reach eligible citizens, particularly young people and first-time voters, while ensuring that its mobilisation activities comply with electoral laws.
The campaign highlights the growing importance of voter registration and grassroots engagement as political parties prepare for the next general election.
