BAG OF PVCS FOUND IN ANAMBRA FOREST, POLICE BEGIN PROBE

The Anambra State Police Command recently disclosed it had ordered an investigation into unravelling the circumstances surrounding the alleged discovery of a bag full of Permanent Voter Cards belonging to the Independent National Electoral Commission.

A hunter, name withheld, found a bag containing the PVCs in a forest  in Akamili community in Nnewi, Anambra State, on Tuesday and later took it to the premises of a popular radio station.

The manager of the radio station, Mr. Charles Ede, who spoke to journalists, said he was off duty when the cards were brought, but his employees had confirmed the development to him.

A video of the PVCs, which was made in the compound of the radio house in Nnewi, and which has been trending online, showed that most of the PVCs belonged to people of the area.

The radio station’s employee, who ran a short commentary on the video, urged those who had yet to get their PVCs to come to the premises of the FM to check if they could find theirs.

VOP news also gathered that most of the PVCs were owned by people from the Nnewi South Local Government Area.

However, reacting to the development, the state police spokesman, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, said the command has not received any such complaint
