The All Progressives Congress (APC) has launched its e-membership registration exercise across Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). According to a statement by the party’s National Chairman, Prof Nentawe Yilwatda, on his verified social media handle, the registration will take place at ward levels nationwide.
Existing members are required to validate their membership online, while new and intending members are encouraged to register and join the party. The exercise aims to ensure proper documentation, strengthen the party, and facilitate full participation in APC activities and decision-making processes. A comprehensive membership register is seen as crucial for the party’s growth and unity.
The APC, one of Nigeria’s major political parties, has been working to enhance its internal structures and processes. The e-membership registration exercise is part of these efforts, leveraging technology to improve efficiency and accessibility. By validating and updating its membership records, the party seeks to build a stronger foundation for its activities and engagement with members.
Prof Yilwatda emphasized the importance of the exercise, stating that a stronger membership register translates to a stronger party and a more united progressive movement. He encouraged members to seize this opportunity to renew their commitment and move forward together, deepening democracy within the party.
The registration exercise is expected to run smoothly across the country, with party officials and volunteers facilitating the process at ward levels. As the APC continues to work on its internal growth and development, this e-membership registration marks a significant step towards enhancing its structures and engaging with its members more effectively. With a focus on strengthening its base and promoting participatory democracy, the party is poised to build a more robust and inclusive political movement.
