The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), yesterday, said 2,305,903 voters are expected to participate in the coming general elections in Oyo State.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Dr. Adeniran Tella, stated that the eligible voters would vote in the 6,390 polling units spread across all 33 local councils in the state.

He disclosed that 2,305,903 Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) had been collected, while 760,766 PVCs were yet to be collected.

Tella assured the residents of the commission’s readiness for a credible and acceptable election.

He, however, called on all eligible voters to come out en masse to vote for candidates of their choice, and charged stakeholders to cooperate with the commission to conduct credible elections in the state.

His words: “I have the opportunity to tell you the level of our preparedness. It has advanced in all stages. This is also an opportunity for us to again come out and talk to you.

“As long as you have your PVC, come out to vote during the elections. So, we are trying to put our heads together.”
