Enugu State’s chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has concluded a comprehensive training for ward agents as part of its nationwide electronic registration exercise. The programme aims to build a credible digital database of party members ahead of future elections.
Speaking on the exercise, Chief Flavor Eze, State Coordinator of APC e-registration in Enugu, explained that the training is designed to ensure accuracy and eliminate errors during registration.
“We want to make sure that there is no mistake at all during the registration. If we don’t get it right, there will be a problem. Our focus is to ensure that everybody is registered correctly,” Eze said. He expressed satisfaction with the progress, noting that the trainees had fully grasped the instructions.
Highlighting the broader benefits of mass registration, he added, “Not only Party faithful but all citizens of Enugu will benefit. This is because when we have good number of people as members, the administration of Governor Peter Mbah which is doing wonders in Enugu will continue beyond 2027 and our president, Bola Tinubu will also win convincingly in Enugu.”
The training involved five individuals per ward, with plans to extend the programme to village canvassers to help recruit more members. With Enugu State comprising 260 wards, Eze confirmed that a total of 1,300 ward agents are being trained.
“The APC will have a structured approach, and these agents will also play a key role during elections,” he explained. On handling network challenges, he added, “Once the agents capture the information, they can upload it from areas with network access.”
The e-registration exercise, ordered by the President to conclude by January 31st, is expected to be completed within the deadline, thanks to the large number of agents deployed per ward. “Other states have two people per ward, but we have five, which allows us to complete the exercise efficiently within the timeframe,” Eze said.
The APC’s e-registration initiative in Enugu is part of a broader strategy to strengthen the party’s grassroots presence and ensure a transparent and inclusive membership process ahead of the 2027 general elections.
