 Staying with election martyrs ahead of the 2023 elections, a non-governmental organization stakeholders democracy network SDN. In collaboration with the Independents National Electoral Commission, INEC and Riva State has staged a permanent voter card sensitization to encourage meaningful participation of U.T. women in the polls. Details in this report. Nigeria has recorded a sharp decline in voter turnout in the last two general elections as well as the off-cycle polls conducted in some states over the years. It is a development that many believers contributed to the country's unimpressive level of development. In the light of this, a group, stakeholders democracy network SDN, launched a continuous voter registration and permanent voter card collection campaign in Riva State. The sensitization campaign is aimed at boosting the level of voter registration and turnout in the country. This project is designed to promote more inclusion of women and youth in the political and electoral process in Riva State and indeed Nigeria. We are implementing this project in 24 communities in Riva State spanning across four local government areas. The representative of the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, Mngozi Ujjadi, who is the head of voter education and publicity in the state, bemoaned the high number of uncollected PVCs. Ujjjadi advised residents against double registration and called on eligible voters who are yet to register to come out unmasked to perform their civic responsibilities before the close of day. While urging Nigerian youths to shun thugry and violence capable of disrupting the electoral process, it congratulated that the PVC campaign is to encourage women, youths, the physically challenged and eligible voters to participate in the election to transform democracy and governance in the country.
