1 million PVC yet to be collected in Kaduna – El-Rufai
As traders of the popular Kaduna textile market, Kasuwan Barci endorsed his second term bid, Kaduna State Governor Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai on Friday said, there were over a million Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) yet to be collected in the state.
He, however, urged the traders to help in sensitizing their members and the general public to approach INEC to collect their cards, “which alone can guarantee your ability to exercise your civic duty of electing the leaders you want”.
Receiving the Kasuwan Barci traders at Sir Kashim Ibrahim Goverment House Governor El-Rufai cautioned electorate against surrendering their PVC or its details to people going round, saying the motive of the opposition party was to clone and invalidate their PVCs.
El-Rufai commended the traders for investing in the economy of the state and for creating opportunities for youths in the market.
While commending them for being involved in importation of textile materials into the state, El-Rufai restated his administration’s commitment to assist them in boosting their businesses, saying Kaduna state Government welcomes and encourage investors.
The governor, who noted that Kasuwan Barci lacks a warehouse, promised to provide them land for the construction of a warehouse.
Hundreds of traders under the auspices of Textile Materials Sellers Association who trooped to Government House Friday morning to declare their support to Governor Nasir El-Rufai’s re-election in 2019 polls, praised the Governor for his people-oriented governance.
Speaking through their leader, during the solidarity visit, Alhaji Umar Muhammed Mai-Shadda, said El-Rufai has demonstrated good leadership in the state and has brought developmental projects that have improved the lives of Kaduna citizens.
According to Mai-Shadda, the association declared that they will work to ensure victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming elections.
