Several Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) and other items have been destroyed after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Izzi Local Government Area of Ebonyi State was set ablaze for unknown arsonists last Sunday.
Below is a statement from INEC on the matter;
“The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Ebonyi State, Mrs Onyeka Pauline Ugochi, reported that our Izzi Local Government Area office located in Iboko, was set ablaze this morning. The incident occurred around 10.00am when some unidentified persons set the entire building ablaze.”
“Although no casualties resulted from the attack, the main building and all the movable and immovable items inside it were destroyed. These include 340 ballot boxes, 130 voting cubicles, 14 electric power generators, large water storage tanks, assorted office furniture and fixtures and yet to be determined quantities of Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs).”
“The attention of the Nigeria Police Force and other security agencies has been drawn to the incident and have commenced investigation.
