Isaac Fayose, brother to former Ekiti State governor Ayo Fayose, raises an allegation that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is distributing uncollected Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the Ekiti governorship election begins. Fayose makes the claim in a video shared on X on Saturday, saying INEC hands over voter cards that were not picked up and that the cards are used to support APC. He also alleges that non-indigenes are paid to vote using those PVCs, citing a specific payment figure. The reports note that major candidates in the election include incumbent Governor Biodun Oyebanji of the APC and Oluwole Oluyede of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Across the outlets, the central points are that Fayose makes public claims of widespread manipulation involving unclaimed voter cards and links the alleged distribution to APC ahead of voting. The sources provided do not include an INEC response to the allegations or independent verification of the claims.
