What They Are Saying

According to Mr. Olumekun, the flood caused significant damage to the office, submerging both movable and immovable items, including vehicles, office furniture, and equipment. The flooding also impacted a significant amount of voter enrollment machines already configured for the forthcoming Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).

The Edo State INEC had previously announced the commencement of the distribution of Permanent Voter Cards (PVC) and the CVR process starting Monday, May 27, 2024. Despite the setback, INEC is delivering additional machines from neighboring states to make up for the shortfall. The commission remains determined to ensure that the CVR in all 192 wards across Edo State will proceed as scheduled on Monday, November 27, 2024.

Why It Matters

The flooding highlights the poor state of the INEC office building and its inability to withstand environmental challenges. This incident underscores the urgent need for renovation and upgrading of INEC offices across the country to meet adequate standards and prevent future occurrences. INEC’s commitment to proceed with the CVR process despite the flooding demonstrates their efficiency and resilience, encouraging more people to participate in the voter registration process.

Bottom Line

Environmental factors can significantly impact the efficiency of INEC and the voter registration process. Despite the severe flooding, INEC is determined to continue with the CVR as planned, showcasing their ability to navigate challenges. This situation calls for government attention to strengthen and upgrade INEC buildings to ensure their durability and functionality during adverse weather conditions.
