Speaking at the launch, APC Publicity Secretary and Coordinator of the exercise, Alhaji Yusuf Idris, said the initiative was vital for the party’s credibility, future planning, and alignment with President Bola Tinubu’s vision for digital innovation in internal party processes.
“This exercise is very important, not just for our party, but also for the leader of our party, the president,” Idris said. “It will provide equal opportunities for members to participate fully in party activities and aspire to leadership positions at all levels.”
A total of 294 agents were engaged to work directly with party members across the state, supervised by 14 local government coordinators.
The structure also includes three senatorial administrators and a state coordinating officer to oversee the process. Idris emphasised that the exercise would ensure a credible and accurate membership database while promoting unity within the party.
The e-registration initiative will serve as a prerequisite for members wishing to contest elective positions or participate in future APC congresses. Idris called on party members to encourage supporters to register and take advantage of the digital platform.
He commended party leaders in the state, including Minister of State for Defence Dr Bello Matawalle, Senator Abdulaziz Yari, and Zamfara State Chairman Alhaji Tukur Danfulani, for their support. Idris tasked all executive members to ensure the success of the programme.

Internet personality, Isaac Fayose has taken a swipe at the former governor of Delta State, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa for allegedly diverting about ₦1.3 trillion belonging to the Delta State Government.
In a video seen by NATIONAL WAVES, Isaac who is the younger brother of the former governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayo Fayose, criticised Okowa for alleged fraud.
He said “Nobody probes Governors, even Okowa who they say took N1.something trillions, his sins are forgiven. He is now about going back to the Senate. You can see how we have legalise corruption in our country, while the citizens are hungry, ebi pawaa, ko sonoje meaning no food, iya jenwa meaning we are suffering. You see the sharing envelopes, envelopes and rice during elections.
It would be recalled that on October 15, 2024, NATIONAL WAVES published a story of how the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) arrested and quizzed Okowa for a week over alleged fraud.
Okowa’s arrest was confirmed by the EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale who stated that Okowa was investigated and detained over the alleged diversion of N1.3 trillion.
The N1.3 trillion reportedly represents the 13% derivation fund from the federation account between 2015 and 2023.
