Taxify is making sure more young people get their Permanent Voters Cards
Taxify, fastest growing ride hailing app in Europe and Africa is making sure that anyone who wants to exercise his or her civic duty by getting their Permanent voters card can
easily do so.
Using a website www.mypvcjourney.com , Taxify is hoping to drive as many people to registration centers as possible in celebration of Democracy Day. The company will let
people use the website to locate their closest PVC centers, pledge to complete the PVC process and get a free ride to the selected center.
According to Taxify’s City Manager, Uche Okafor: “We believe cities and countries work best when everybody has a say. We are excited by the conversations happening both on and offline. Young Nigerians are perhaps for the first time interested in taking charge of their futures and in celebration of democracy day, we want to make the journey to getting a PVC hassle free for everyone.”
Everyone can take advantage of Taxify’s offer. To find your PVC center, you can enter your current location and be directed you to a Google powered webpage with a list of centers closest to you. Take the pledge to complete the process and Taxify will send you an email showing the centers operating hours and offering a free ride code to your designated PVC Registration Centre.
Taxify has said that they would continue to push messages directing users to register.
“What could you do in the three minutes it takes for your Taxify to arrive? How about starting the process of getting your PVC? Around two-in-every-three eligible 18- to 26-
year-olds are still not registered. Put simply, that means they are missing out on having their say.”
So far the campaign is already receiving positive feedback on social media and a lot of millennials are excited about this campaign.
The tech company has already proven that it can seamlessly connect drivers to riders via its app, it remains to be seen if they can also move more people to get involved
