PUBLIC SERVICE ATTENTION!

The Executive Chairman of Bende Local Government Area, Hon. Dcn. Uwabunkonye Bassey, has raised concern over reports that some individuals, allegedly acting in the name of the All Progressives Congress (APC), are demanding voters’ card details and National Identification Numbers (NIN) from all the wards in Bende under the guise of party e-registration. According to the information received, such activities may be carried out during so-called town hall meetings where sensitive personal details are either copied or photographed.

The Executive Chairman wishes to make it clear that no individual or group has the right to collect or demand INEC Voter’s Cards or NIN details from citizens in this manner. Such actions are illegal, unsafe, and contrary to established democratic processes, as well as existing data protection and electoral guidelines.

Mayor Bassey therefore strongly advises Ndi Bende and the general public to be vigilant, avoid such gatherings, and refuse to share their personal information with unauthorized persons. Residents are encouraged to report any suspicious activities to the appropriate security agencies, as the local government remains committed to protecting the rights, safety, and democratic freedom of all citizens.
