The South-West chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council has launched ‘Operation Collect Your PVC’ across the geo-political zone over the low rate of the collection of Permanent Voters Card (PVC) ahead of the 2023 general election.
The campaign council also enjoined governors of all APC controlled states to declare Tuesday, January 24, 2023, as work-free day for the collection of PVC by the citizens.
The South-West Presidential Campaign Council of the APC made this known via a communique issued after its meeting held in Akure, the Ondo State capital on Thursday.
The council, while hailing its chairman and coordinator, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State, equally approved his request to appoint the immediate past governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, to assist and support him in coordinating the party’s campaigns in the South-West region.

The APC Presidential Campaign Council also directed the setting up of “polling units mobilisation committees across all the South-West states and also decides that all party leaders and government functionaries at the federal and state levels should return immediately to their respective local governments, wards, and units to lead the campaigns and voter mobilisation activities.”
It further urged governors of APC controlled states in the South-West to deploy “all state owned mass media machineries towards mobilisation, voter education, and PVC collection.”
The council appealed to the PCC to “urgently release funds to all campaign directorates, most especially, the youth directorate in order to enhance the campaign and mobilisation activities.”
The campaign council also frowned at cases of anti-party activities of some APC leaders and appointees and called on the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) to “deal decisively with any party member engaging in anti-party activities.”
