Osun Declares Work-Free Day for Public Servants to Collect PVCs
The Osun State Government has declared a work-free day for public servants to enable workers to collect their Permanent Voter Cards PVCs as part of efforts to encourage civic participation. The directive applies to all categories of state public servants, including local government employees and staff of tertiary institutions across the state. According to the state government, the decision is aimed at giving workers adequate time to complete the voter registration process and collect their PVCs without affecting their official responsibilities. The administration encouraged eligible residents to take advantage of the opportunity to participate in the electoral process and ensure they are prepared for upcoming elections. The move comes amid renewed efforts by electoral authorities and stakeholders to increase voter participation and strengthen citizens’ involvement in democratic activities. Public servants have been advised to use the designated period responsibly and complete the necessary procedures at their respective collection centres.
