By Deborah Oladejo, Osogbo
Osun State Governor, Mr. Gboyega Oyetola has admonished electorate not to allow any individual deceive them with fake promises to steal their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) ahead of the July 16 governorship election in the state.
Oyetola made the remarks during an engagement programme with Nigeria Professional Photographers and Videographers Association on Wednesday in Osogbo.
Represented by his Special Adviser on Civic Engagement, Mr. Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, the governor appealed to them to jealously guard their PVCs noting that the strength of the electorate is his or her PVC.
Oyetola also urged those who are yet to obtain their PVC to take advantage of the ongoing Continuous Voters Registration of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Oyetola expressed optimism that APC would win the governorship election convincingly with a clear margin, even as he commended the people of the state for their support since the beginning of his administration.
He said he would continue to prioritise their welfare and also protect their interest.
The governor also appreciated members of the association for their support for the state government, with a promise that his administration would continue to provide the enabling environment for their businesses.
In his remarks, the chairman of the Association, Mr Issac Adegoke, commended the state government on its various developmental projects across the state and its unique approach to good governance through continuous engagement with the people.
Adegoke, while also presenting an award of best performance in service to Oyintiloye, said it was to appreciate the contribution and value added by the Civic engagement centre in reaching out to all social strata in the state.
