The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has commenced an electronic membership registration exercise across the state, marking a major step toward strengthening its internal structure and data management.
Eko Hot News reports that the digital registration drive is aimed at building a credible, centralised database of party members while enhancing transparency and efficiency within the party’s operations.
Party officials disclosed that the exercise has begun across wards and local government areas, following the deployment of electronic registration tools and devices to designated officers.
The electronic process is expected to capture accurate biodata of both existing and new members, eliminating duplication and improving record-keeping at the grassroots level.
According to the Lagos APC leadership, the initiative aligns with the party’s broader efforts to modernise its systems and encourage wider participation among members.
Officials explained that the e-registration platform will support better planning, coordination, and engagement ahead of future party activities and decision-making processes.
In several local councils, including Ikorodu, party agents have already begun registering members using the digital platform, with reports of steady participation.
The APC leadership urged members to fully cooperate with the exercise, noting that accurate membership records are essential for internal organisation and party growth.
Party stakeholders described the registration drive as timely, especially as political parties increasingly adopt technology-driven solutions to improve efficiency.
They added that the initiative will help the party strengthen its grassroots presence and ensure inclusive participation across all levels.
The Lagos APC emphasised that the electronic registration is not limited to new entrants but also open to existing members who need to update their records.
Officials assured members that the process is simple, secure, and designed to protect personal information collected during registration.
Observers say the move reflects a growing trend toward digital transformation in the administration of political parties across Nigeria.
The Lagos APC leadership reiterated its commitment to building a more responsive and organised party structure through innovation and accountability.
Party leaders expressed optimism that the electronic membership registration would enhance unity, coordination, and effective communication within the party.
The exercise is expected to continue statewide, with officials encouraging early participation to ensure comprehensive coverage.
