Collect your Omang Card; the right thing to do

The general elections are a few months away; the nation is rightly abuzz with campaigns and sloganeering. It is however a concern that even up to now there is a sea of uncollected Omang cards at the office of national registration.

This identity card is an access key to the polling stations. Without it one would be disenfranchised. It is with this in mind that we appeal to potential voters to ensure that their cards are collected and kept safe. It is their constitutional right to  vote and contribute to the development of this country.

The same applies to other people whose cards  have expired or will expire before the election year; please do the right thing, renew your cards. It would be very unfortunate to miss the opportunity to vote just because one does not have an identity card; it would even be more unreasonable if such a card exists but is not collected.
