Beware! APC Using Fake Empowerment To Collect People’s Voters Cards

“Our attention has been drawn to a Form being distributed by the APC under the guise of Ekiti Development Front, purportedly for empowerment”.

“Residence of Ekiti State should note that this is a new plot by the APC to collect people’s VOTERS CARDS, thereby preventing them from voting on July 14, 2018”.

The sinister plot is aimed at first collecting Voters Cards numbers and later asking for submission of original Voters Cards for Biometric Exercise so as to be qualified for the fake empowerment scheme.

The moment you submit your original voter’s cards to them, they will disappear.

Members of the public should note that there is no contact address on the Forms being distributed. Therefore, after releasing your voter’s cards, where do you go to get it back?

Also, they are working with the possibility of deactivating as many voters cards as possible, using the voter’s cards numbers provided in the Forms.

Targeted for this criminal act are Ado Ekiti and Ikere Ekiti as well as other major towns in the State where the APC have perfected plans to disenfranchise as many people as possible to reduce votes.

Since 2014 that APC lost power in Ekiti and 2015 that it assumed power in Abuja, no empowerment program was done for Ekiti people.

Now that election is less than seven weeks and its initial plot to directly buy voters cards was exposed, the APC has opted for the fake empowerment to steal people’s voter’s cards.

Ekiti people are therefore urged not to surrender their voters’ cards to anyone.

Your voters’ card is the only weapon that you have to choose who governs you, do not surrender it under the guise of an eleventh-hour fake empowerment.

Also, there is no organisation called Ekiti Development Front. It never existed in Ekiti State before now. The APC only designed it now as a tool for the collection of people’s voters’ cards so that only the party members will be able to vote on July 14.

Don’t surrender your voter’s cards to anyone, don’t get disenfranchised.

On July 14, Ekiti people must vote and their votes must count.
