“Operation Pick Your PVC” is a campaign launched by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Nigeria to encourage eligible voters to collect their permanent voter cards (PVCs) ahead of elections.
“Know Your Polling Unit” (KYP) also launched by the Independent National Electoral Commission is to help voters locate their polling units and understand the voting process. The campaign aims to increase voters turnout and participation by ensuring that as many eligible voters as possible have their PVCs before the election day and participation by providing clear and accurate information about polling units to eligible voters.
The campaign usually involves INEC setting up PVC collection centers in various locations across the country and also working with other organizations and stakeholders to create awareness about the importance of collecting PVCs and participating in the electoral process. This also involves the commission working with other government agencies and local government to reach out to eligible voters and provide them with the necessary
information and support to collect their PVCs.
