The governorship candidate of Accord Party (AP) for 2023 general election in Rivers State, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs, has advised youths in the state to get Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs), emphasising that it is the only means they can get fair chance to quality life.

Lulu-Briggs gave the advice in Port Harcourt at the weekend during the inauguration of youths to coordinate 23 councils of the “We Agenda”, an initiative by Accord Party to inspire PVC registration and collection.

He said: “You have to go and get your PVC, that is the power you have. That tiny piece of paper that looks like nothing is what you will use to enthrone the government that you want. And you need that because all of us require a fair chance in this race of life.” 

The youth leader of the party, Tornwe Nelson, lamented that youths had been major victims of elections, though they are in the majority. He urged them to seize the opportunity of 2023 election to do the right thing by getting their PVCs, vote according to their conscience and shun vote-buying.

MEANWHILE, as part of her 20th anniversary celebration, the O. B. Lulu-Briggs Foundation has announced her 36th Free Medical Mission at Opobo/Nkoro Council of Rivers State.

The five-day programme includes free medical consultations, free treatment and health awareness educational programmes. 
Earlier in the year, the foundation organised a successful free medical mission that treated over 3,000 patients at Omoku, Rivers State. 

Cases to be handled by the medical team at the programme include optometry, physiotherapy, ophthalmology and surgeries, among others.
