Two hunters have discovered a bag full of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) disposed inside a bush in Nnewi, Nnewi North Local Government Area (LGA) of Anambra State.
It was gathered that the hunters found the bag containing thousands of PVCs in a bush in Akamili, a community in Nnewi, on Tuesday, and later took it to a popular radio station, Authority FM.
A presenter at Authority Radio FM said: “The names that we have here, they are all coming from the people who are from Nnewi North and of course the entire South East.
“These guys have looked for their PVCs, they have lost hope… How can someone do this? A few days to the general election of 2023 and this is what we’re seeing,” the radio staffer added.
A video of the PVCs, which was made in the compound of the radio station in Nnewi, which has been trending online showed that most of the PVCs belonged to people of the area.
The radio station’s staff, who ran a short commentary on the video, urged those who were yet to get their PVCs to come to the premises of the FM to check if they can find theirs.
