REC Commends NYSC INEC Ambassadors as Sensitisation on Continuous Voter Registration Kicks Off in Gombe

The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) Gombe State, Dr. Sa’ad Umar Idris, has commended members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) INEC Community Development Service (CDS) Group, popularly known as INEC Ambassadors, for their active roles in sensitizing the public on the electoral process.

Speaking at the flag-off ceremony of sensitization activities for the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) in the state, Dr. Idris lauded the Corps members for their commitment to national development.

"The selfless service you render to communities in Gombe State is a bold statement that an enlightened electorate is the foundation of a better Nigeria. Keep up the good work," he said. 

The REC further disclosed that the sensitization campaign would feature a series of activities designed to deepen voter awareness. These include road shows, market outreaches across the 11 Local Government Areas of the state, sensitization in worship centres, and voter enlightenment programmes on radio.

Following the flag-off, staff of the Voter Education and Publicity Department, alongside the INEC Ambassadors, took to major streets and busy areas within the state capital to engage residents and distribute flyers on the CVR exercise.
