No PVC, No Salary in Imo – Gov. Rochas Blows Hot
Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha made a new disclosure while addressing newsmen in Owerri on Saturday. According to him, in order to take part in various activities in Imo State, including receipt of salaries, civil servants must get their PVC.
Governor Rochas Okorocha who noted that many people in the state are not concerned about getting their voters’ card, stated that residents of the state will not be able to participate in socio-economic activities such as payment of salaries and getting admission into schools without the PVC.
On the ‘I-don’t-care-attitude’ of people of the state towards the collection of their PVCs, Rochas Okorocha said;
“The government is going to initiate the policy of ‘operation-show-your-PVC’ before you can enter the market to buy or sell and before you can do business or get anything from the government, and before your child can be admitted into schools.
Even before workers receive their salaries from the government, they must show their PVC. We cannot allow the I-don’t-care-attitude of our people towards the exercise to continue unchecked.”
