The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayodele Fayose yesterday declared that any Ekiti citizen, who has attained the age of 18 but is yet to get the Permanent Voter Card, PVC, will henceforth forfeit democratic dividends.
Speaking at Aramoko Ekiti while commissioning a water reticulation project, the Governor reasoned that not having a PVC could mean that such citizen offers no civic responsibility to government and would therefore be deemed as having nothing to enjoy from the government.
When he got to Awo in Irepodun/Ifelodun local government during the flag-off ceremony of the 14.5 km Awo-Ara-Ijero road, Fayose said: “Very soon about 10,000 people will benefit N10,000 monthly in our social security scheme.”
He disclosed that the road was constructed when he was in government in 2003 lamenting that since then nothing had been done on it.
“I promised during my electioneering campaign that I will do this road and what we are doing today is a promise kept,” the Governor stated.
