“We’ve done training at the state level, we’ve done a zonal level, we’ve done a local government in most of the states. And I want to urge our stakeholders to support the nationwide rollout of this noble activity.
“Let us use the opportunity to assure all the new members that they have all the rights and privileges within the party, to urge them to capitalize on the nationwide membership registration, to register their supporters. So both the old and new members should go to the portal and register all their members.
“We expect that this drive should be done from now to January ending, 30th of January. All members must have registered and prepared for our congresses that will come ahead,” the APC chairman stated.
The meeting was attended by President Bola Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, and principal officers of the National Assembly.
Mutfwang is the latest governor elected under the PDP platform to join the APC in the last few months.
Others are Governors Douyr Diri ( Bayelsa), Umo Eno (Akwa Ibom), Peter Mbah ( Enugu) and Siminilayi Fubara ( Rivers).
