The GUTS Foundation’s campaign for voter’s registration in Abuja got a commendation from Lugbe axis of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) when the team took their sensitisation to the satellite town.
Lugbe is a community along the Airport Road and had taken the pre-registration and the actual registration of voters lightly until GUTS Foundation stormed the area penultimate Saturday.
Expectedly and like they were waiting for the opportunity, residents came out en-mass after they were sensitised on the need to obtain their Permanent Voters Card (PVC), in order to be guaranteed a better future.
No fewer than 1,000 people had their pre-registration sorted with the help of GUTS volunteers at the Lugbe Primary School.
Attracted to the venue of the sensitisation were young people, whom were inspired by the quality entertainment packaged by the Foundation.
The high points of the event were the various competitions put up to spice up the sensitisation. Prizes were won including cash and T-Shirts. Other important items such as food were distributed to residents.
The organisers thanked the community members for their orderliness and urged them to follow up in order to get captured ahead of the 2023 elections.
