“The cohesion in our party is a clear sign we’re coasting to victory,” Mahmoud declared. She stressed that e-registration goes beyond numbers, adding it’s about fortifying party structures, updating databases, and amplifying every member’s voice in Nigeria’s future.
Highlighting the FCT’s status as the nation’s capital and cultural hub, Mahmoud urged men, women, youths, and persons with disabilities to register or update records promptly. She reaffirmed APC’s backing of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, calling for grassroots unity and dynamism to drive people-oriented governance.
FCT APC Chairman Abdulmalik Usman echoed the optimism, noting the exercise aligns with Tinubu’s directive for nationwide member revalidation. He commended the massive turnout, quipping, “While APC leads, others follow.”
