The All Progressives Congress has said it expects its ongoing online membership registration to cross nine million registered members within two weeks of launch. The party’s National Working Committee gave this projection during a press briefing held on Monday in Abuja.
The National Chairman of the party, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, said the exercise has already shown strong public response across the country. He explained that the digital process was introduced to make registration easier and to ensure proper documentation of members.
Also speaking, the National Secretary of the party, Ajibola Basiru, disclosed that more than two million Nigerians successfully registered within the first week of the exercise. He said the early turnout shows growing interest in the party and confidence in the registration system.
Basiru added that accurate membership records would help the party function better at all levels, especially in planning and coordination. He noted that internal reviews would be carried out regularly to track progress in each state.
According to him, states that fail to meet expected registration targets may see changes in their coordinators, as the national leadership has been given the authority to take corrective steps where necessary.
The party leadership expressed optimism that the numbers would continue to rise steadily as more Nigerians gain access to the platform and complete their registration in the coming days.
