Bello seeks support for Tinubu as Kogi APC kicks off e-registration

In compliance with the directives of the National headquarters of the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Kogi State chapter of the party has begun its electronic membership registration .

The exercise was kicked off by Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo.

Former Governor Yahaya Bello, was electronically registered at his Agasa Ward in Okene Local Government Area, at an event that attracted a large turnout of loyalists, including the Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Bello.

Speaking shortly after his registration, Yahaya Bello described the exercise as timely and commendable. 

He  noted that it would strengthen internal party cohesion and improve direct engagement between the party and its members.

He described the APC as a party for all Nigerians and hailed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his ‘ongoing efforts to reposition the country for sustainable growth and development.’

Bello applauded the President’s resolve to make Nigeria globally competitive, particularly in the areas of economic development and human capital advancement.

Urging party members to participate actively in the e-membership registration , Bello explained that the initiative would directly connect registered members to government interventions and empowerment programmes under the Renewed Hope administration of President Tinubu.

“Let me commend everyone for turning out for this exercise today. I want to assure you that our leader and President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has good plans for the people of this great nation and he will continue to do more for the people.

 The requirement of the National Identification Number (NIN) in the e-registration process shows that members are directly linked to the party leadership and can be reached without intermediaries for empowerment and other benefits.

 I urge you to encourage members of your families to participate in this exercise,” he said.

Bello  urged members to take forthcoming elections seriously, reiterating that the APC remains the dominant political party in Kogi State. He called on the people to sustain the party’s political fortune by voting APC candidates at all levels in future elections.

He acknowledged that development often comes with challenges, urging Nigerians to be patient and to continue supporting the President’s reform agenda, which he described as well-intentioned and focused on long-term national progress.

Bello also expressed gratitude to party stakeholders in the state for their continued support. He praised the state party executive, local government chairmen, grassroots leaders, party ambassadors, and all committed supporters of the APC across the state.

Earlier, the APC Chairman  Abdullahi Bello, informed the gathering that following the registration of the Governor and the former Governor, the e-registration  would continue across all the 21 local government areas.

He appealed for cooperation, understanding, and prompt participation by party members to ensure the successful completion of the exercise within the timeframe set by the party’s national leadership.

The event was witnessed by party executives, local government chairmen, local government party chairmen, and numerous party loyalists from across the area.
