Three weeks to the gubernatorial election in Osun, the state government has declared Friday, June 24, a work-free day to enable civil servants who are yet to collect their Permanent Voter Cards do so.

This was disclosed in a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Prince Wole Oyebamiji.

The statement read in part: “The Government of Osun State acknowledges the importance of workers in the democratic process, and is aware that the only way workers can give life to their aspiration for a worker-friendly government is through their votes.
