The Obidient Movement has called on all Nigerians who are eligible to vote of 18 years and above and are yet to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to seize the opportunity provided by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, through the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration, CVR, exercise.
National Coordinator, Obidient Movement, Dr. Yunusa Tanko in a statement on Tuesday, said: “No responsible Nigerian should sit on the fence at this defining moment in our nation’s democratic journey towards a New Nigeria. This crucial nationwide exercise is ongoing and will end on July 10, 2026. This is the last opportunity for Nigerians to secure their PVCs in preparation for the forthcoming 2027 general elections.
“Our movement is borne out of a shared yearning for good governance. We affirm that active participation in the electoral process is not just a constitutional right, but also a sacred duty we owe ourselves and future generations.
“Our PVCs are the key to unlocking the many untapped potentials of this great nation and ending corruption, insecurity, unemployment, and poverty.
“We call on civil society organisations, the media, religious bodies, private organisations, government institutions, traders, community leaders, and families to mobilise Nigerians on the need for voter registration and active participation in the voting process.

“Democracy only thrives when citizens actively participate in electing those who govern them, while voter apathy encourages poor leadership.
“If you need to replace your lost PVC, transfer your polling unit, or correct your data, quickly log on to the dedicated CVR online portal at: https://cvr.inecnigeria.org.
Alternatively, visit the nearest INEC State or Local Government Area office nationwide between 9am and 3pm.
“The general public is also informed that INEC will display the register of voters from July 23, 2026, to July 29, 2026. This exercise will allow the public to scrutinise the published voters’ records and enable the commission to correct any observed anomalies.
“We urge Nigerians not to postpone collecting their PVCs. We must register to vote. We must vote, and we shall defend our mandate.
“Remember, a registered voter with a PVC today is a powerful voice for change tomorrow. A new Nigeria is possible,” the statement added.
