It further assured that their votes will also count.

Recall that INEC had announced last month that it will be ending it’s registration for Permanent Voters Card on 30th of June.
However, the upsurge in the number of electorates scrambling for enrollment has resulted groups and political stakeholders to call for extension of time so as to ensure that everyone get registered ahead of the 2023 general election.
