Ahead of the 2027 general elections, campaign volunteers under the ITURA '27 movement have released a simplified, step-by-step voter education guide designed to ensure that the electorate in Ijesa North casts valid ballots.

The initiative, spearheaded by supporters of Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi, the Accord Party candidate for the Obokun/Oriade Federal Constituency in Osun State, focuses on breaking down the voting procedure for first-time voters, elderly residents, and rural communities across the constituency.

The step-by-step instructions outline the necessary stages for election day:

1. Get ready early: Confirm voter registration status and collect Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) ahead of election day.
2. Go to your polling unit: Arrive early, join queues peacefully, and await proper accreditation.
3. Look for the Accord logo: Locate the party symbol featuring the thumbs-up sign on the ballot paper.
4. Thumbprint inside the box: Press an inked thumb firmly and strictly within the designated box beside the Accord logo to prevent voided votes.
5. Fold and drop: Securely fold the ballot paper and drop it into the ballot box without disclosing choices.
6. Stay peaceful and informed: Observe the process calmly and adhere to guidelines after voting.

The volunteer group stressed that preventing ballot errors is crucial, reminding constituents that votes must be properly marked to count in the competitive federal constituency race.
