The Resident Electoral Commissioner for Adamawa State, Kassim Geidam, says rigging will not be possible in the state during the 2019 general elections.
Addressing journalists in Yola, Saturday, Geidam said nobody could use another person’s permanent voter’s card.
Gaidam disclosed that 288,043 permanent voter’s cards were yet to be collected in the state.
“As I address you today, we have 288,043 uncollected PVCs, out of which 164,409 cards are for 2017 and 2018 registrations. The commission approved display of register of voters at all polling units. This is in accordance with section 19 & 20 of the Electoral Act 2010 (as amended).
“About two weeks ago, the state office received the PVCs for the first quarter of the year totalling 95,085. We therefore use this medium to appeal to all those who registered within this period to visit our LGA offices for collection of their PVCs and the 226 RA centres from 6th to 12th of Nov 2018.
“The essence of the exercise is the removal of the following ineligible voters from the registers— decreased voters, non-Nigerians, registration with still pictures, under aged and multiple registrants”, Gaidam said.
