GOVERNOR ODODO FLAGS OFF APC E-REGISTRATION IN HIS WARD, URGES MASSIVE PARTICIPATION
Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, has officially flagged off the All Progressives Congress (APC) electronic registration exercise at his Upogoro Ward in Okene Local Government Area of the state.
The event, which marked the formal commencement of the APC e-registration programme across Kogi State, attracted party leaders, stakeholders, and supporters who gathered to witness the Governor revalidate his membership on the digital platform.
Speaking shortly after completing his online registration, Governor Ododo urged Kogites to seize the opportunity to register en masse as members of the ruling All Progressives Congress.
He described the initiative as a major step toward strengthening internal democracy and enhancing party organisation.
He explained that the e-registration platform was introduced in response to the growing interest of Nigerians who wish to identify with the party’s progressive ideology and reform agenda.
“Hundreds of thousands of people have been clamouring to register as members of our party. This platform has created the opportunity to achieve that seamlessly, thanks to our performing President and the national leadership of the party,” the Governor said.
Governor Ododo attributed the renewed confidence in the APC to the bold reforms and leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, noting that the party has become increasingly attractive to Nigerians due to improvements in the economy.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made our party the most attractive in Nigeria today.
His policies are yielding results—the economy is gradually stabilising, the naira is strengthening, food prices are easing, and agriculture is taking centre stage once again.
The beginning was tough, but it was necessary to build a stronger and more resilient nation,” he stated.
The Governor expressed confidence that Nigerians would reward the President’s courage and reforms with renewed trust, adding that citizens have faith in his leadership and vision for the country.
Governor Ododo also charged party leaders at all levels to ensure a smooth and massive rollout of the e-registration exercise across the state, describing it as a clear demonstration that the APC is leading Nigeria into a new era of digital party administration.
He directed the highest political appointee in each Local Government Area to work with council chairmen and key party stakeholders to ensure the success of the exercise in their respective councils.
“Let us open our doors wide for others to join the progressive family. Everyone who comes into this party is welcome and will be treated as an equal stakeholder,” he assured.
Reaffirming his commitment to good governance, Governor Ododo pledged to continue delivering on the promises made to the people of Kogi State.
Since assuming office, he noted, his administration has recorded significant achievements across critical sectors, including security enhancement, improved healthcare delivery, rural electrification, road rehabilitation, education, youth empowerment, and agricultural development to boost food security.
He added that the positive feedback from citizens would only motivate his administration to do more, stressing that the government would not
“take its foot off the pedal” in building a safer, more prosperous, and inclusive Kogi State.
The Governor was accompanied to the event by leaders of the party in the state.
