2027: APC youth leader unveils PVC collection campaign

APC South-West Youth Leader, Adesuyi Daramola

The All Progressives Congress South-West Youth Leader, Adesuyi Daramola, has unveiled a 30-day Permanent Voter’s Card collection campaign and inaugurated a support team to mobilise eligible voters across the region ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Daramola, who disclosed this at the flag-off ceremony in Lagos on Friday, said the initiative was aimed at addressing the slow pace of PVC collection through sustained public awareness and grassroots mobilisation across the six South-West states.

According to a statement he personally issued, Daramola stated that the campaign was not limited to APC members but was designed to encourage all eligible Nigerians, irrespective of political affiliation, to collect their PVCs and participate in the electoral process.

“This campaign is not just for APC members. It is for every eligible Nigerian, regardless of political affiliation. Everyone deserves the opportunity to collect their PVC and exercise their constitutional right to vote.

“This goes beyond party politics; it is about encouraging citizens to participate actively in the electoral process,” he said.

“The 30-day campaign is expected to strengthen grassroots mobilisation and increase voter participation across the South-West as political activities intensify ahead of the 2027 elections,” he added.

The APC youth leader said the newly inaugurated PVC Collection Support Team would be responsible for driving public awareness, reaching communities at the grassroots and encouraging eligible voters to regard PVC collection as a civic responsibility rather than a partisan exercise.

He urged Nigerians who had completed their voter registration to collect their cards, describing the process as an essential step towards exercising their democratic rights.

“Our goal is to encourage young people and all eligible Nigerians to fulfil their civic responsibility by collecting their PVCs. Having registered to obtain a PVC, collecting it should not become a challenge,” Daramola added.

He also urged young Nigerians to translate their interest in politics into active civic participation, noting that their involvement in elections would help determine the country’s leadership and future.

“Elections are not just about the government; they concern every one of us. Our participation has a significant impact on the kind of government we have,” he said.
