Kano APC to mobilise for e-registration

The Kano chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Tuesday called for massive mobilisation to strengthen the ongoing e-registration of party members.

The party said the move was a strategic step towards securing a decisive victory at next year’s general election.

The strategy was adopted during a marathon meeting that ended on Tuesday.

Former APC National Chairman of APC Abdullahi Umar Ganduje highlighted that the e-registration exercise was vital for building a comprehensive, credible and verifiable membership database, which would significantly enhance the party’s electoral performance nationwide.

Following detailed briefings from Kano APC Chairman Abdullahi Abbas and the Kano e-registration coordinator Shafi’u Darma, the meeting resolved that, given the party’s substantial grassroots support in Kano, every member should ensure they are registered and actively encourage others to register.

The meeting further stressed that the e-registration exercise will strengthen the party’s prospects, building on over one and a half decades of loyalty and organisational influence in the state.

Stakeholders called for sustained and effective mobilisation, noting that “accurate registration is instrumental in reinforcing the party’s political structure, expanding voter outreach and maximising electoral performance in the coming elections.”

Members were also urged to remain united and rally behind the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

The meeting, chaired by Ganduje, was attended by many APC chieftains, including the Deputy Senate President, Senator Barau Jibrin; Senator Abdulrahman Kawu Sumaila, (Kano South); Hon. Kabir Abubakar Bichi, Hon. Alhassan Ado Doguwa, Prince Abdullahi Abbas, Dr. Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna and Hon. Murtala Sule Garo, APC gubernatorial and deputy gubernatorial candidates in 2023.
