Obidient Movement Urges Youths to Secure PVCs Ahead of Elections

The Obidient Movement in Kogi State has called on Nigerian youths to take advantage of the upcoming Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) in preparation for future elections.

Speaking at a press briefing in Lokoja on Saturday, the Spokesperson of the Movement, Comrade Emmanuel Idakwo, said the PVC remains the most powerful tool for young Nigerians to reclaim the country from years of bad leadership.

Our Kogi State Correspondent, reports that he urged citizens, particularly first-time voters, those who have misplaced their cards, and others who recently relocated, to seize the opportunity starting August 18 to either register, replace, or transfer their voter cards.

“Our country groans under the weight of leaders who have looted our future, mismanaged our resources, and mortgaged the hopes of an entire generation. But a new Nigeria is possible — and it begins with political action through the ballot,” Idakwo stated.

He stressed that the Obidient Movement is not about one individual but about millions of Nigerians who are determined to replace incompetence, corruption, and nepotism with transparency, accountability, and integrity.

Idakwo further emphasized that true change will not come from hashtags or social media outbursts but through active participation in the democratic process.

“From markets to campuses, from motor parks to places of worship, the message must be clear: PVC is our passport to a new Nigeria,” he said.

The Movement’s leadership encouraged youths across the country to rise, mobilize, and organize themselves peacefully and legally, insisting that their silence and apathy in the past had been wrongly interpreted as consent for bad governance.
